DPReview 8.9/10
Excellent build quality and superb sharpness make this lens an ideal companion for Ricoh's high-resolution DSLR bodies. In favorable conditions, the HD 50mm F1.4 also delivers beautifully smooth bokeh, but overall performance is slightly marred by longitudinal chromatic aberration. This can be distracting in some shooting situations.
