Das Pentax smc DA 50 mm F1,8 macht alles in allem einen guten Eindruck im Test, die sehr gute Note erreicht das Festbrennweiten-Objektiv jedoch nicht. Dies liegt in erster Linie an der nur durchschnittlichen Geschwindigkeit. Mit den besten dieses Tests kann es auch bei der Auflösung nicht mithalten, gut ist diese dennoch...

Offen arbeitet das Pentax mehr als solide und kann dabei auch die Ränder gut abbilden. Für eine Empfehlung reicht dies aber nicht aus, da das Objektiv im Weitwinkel eher mäßige Leistungen bereitstellt und somit die Bildränder schwächeln.
