Yes, but we can't absolve a product of its marketing.

Wouldn't that be a flaw with their marketing and not necessarily the lens, though?
After the absolute abomination of the Mitakon 65, I would never expect an architecture-capable lens from these guys.

I'm very interested in this lens as well but there was some recent house repairs that had to be done so I will also not be buying this for a while sadly. I hope it really does have the sharpness to resolve the GFX sensors.
