Thanks for the feedback, Marco.
I've read here and there that the bokeh is a bit of a problem with the 40/1.4. I'm also slightly concerned about the "effective" focal length (60mm f/2) which seems a little short. However, the speed is certainly fine as is the price tag. It's probably pushing sanity to consider something like the 50/1.1.

Yes maybe there are better lenses but the lens is really small and affordable.

The images are done with ufraw(dcraw) and mostly I don't sharpen them or do noise reduction at all.
I like the angle of the lens. It is working well for indoor people shoots. For me the combination of 16mm, 24mm and 40mm works. The 24 mm could be smaller because together with the A-Mount adapter it is to big. So a 24/2(.8) mm pancake would be really nice. ;-)
