I have some concerns and suggestions about this review.
You mention that this version of the lens is different, "Please note that it is very different to the Hyperprime 50mm f/0.95 that has already been available for MFT for around 1000$"--- How so? It would be nice if the article briefly mentioned major differences.

The MFT sensor is about 1/4 the size of the 135-size "full-frame" sensor that an M-mount lens might encounter. Thus the M-mount version's glass needs to cover an image circle about 4 times bigger. That's a major difference.
