This looks like a very compact lens for the M system, Fuji's GX1, & The NEX system, I wonder what the IQ will be like? And will the corners be useable on the NEX 7?

It says "Super Tpirlet" instead of "Super Triplet"
I imagine it will be quite good on M film bodies and an M9, but who knows about the other bodies. There's only going to be 180 up front so we'll have to see what people think.
I wonder about the microlens / ray angle shading on digital cameras. The M9 has those shifted micorlenses, probably it will work good enough even on the 24x36 M9 sensor.
