I have been photographing with this lens periodically since 2022. I believe that this lens is somehow underestimated by users. Yes, the DA55* has slightly nobler bokeh. But this is very subjective. I want to play around with this lens shooting a city at night out of focus (round lights at night) ;=) The lens needs to buy an inexpensive 49mm lens hood. The image contrast will be greatly improved.
