Well this is certainly possible with the right technique.  0.65mm pitch 
is quite easy so I wouldn't imagine 0.5mm is much harder.

I wrote a tutorial here:

(pic of soldered 0.65mm pitch IC at the bottom of the page)

Pin for pin it actually works out quicker than soldering thru-hole once 
you get the technique down.  Plenty of flux is the key!
