Minolta Auto Rokkor PF 58mm f/1.4 wide open: what do you think about sharpness and oof blur?

Hello,
I purchased this old Minolta lens for quite cheap indeed, and I tested it a bit yesterday and today on my wife and father-in-law with my GX7 and newly bought cheap adapter. These were all shot at 1.4. RAW files with no correction safe for the Huelight CF High V25 calibration profile. What do you think of the general rendering of the lens in the following picture. I'm thinking about selling it anyway so no need to spare me



Panasonic GX850
Sony a7 III
Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm 1:4-5.6
Panasonic Lumix G Vario HD 12-32mm F3.5-5.6 Mega OIS
Tamron 17-28mm F2.8 Di III RXD

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
