this tonight along with yet another Wasabi Power battery ( never can have too many). I'm excited to see how the lens performs, especially with that macro ring.
Only unfortunate part is that I have to wait 17-28 business days for it to ship from across the pond.
Once it gets here I'll be sure to post a test shot or two

It will be really interesting to see, as with my 25/1.4 when the adaptor arrives. I went for the 25 because I am looking to top out the long end of a travel kit.
The Q has an advantage over my DSLR and legacy lenses in terms of size. That's for sure, and why I am looking at CMounts. But going much longer than 25mm physics takes over. No matter how compact they try, a 50/1.4 MUST be a minimum of 36mm in diameter plus what ever "packaging" is needed, so I do not see lenses of this length being much more compact than their k mount equivalents,
If I want longer, then I have a ton of M42 and K mount lenses for super tele, but that is not normally my need for travel.
Hopefully my adaptor will be here soon. The lens , sitting on its own keeps looking at me like a dog that wants to go out and play
