I think it's same as old one. However, not many have their hands on it. I have it on update list for months from bh and adorama... still not available with the XE4 kit.

I think if the 35 1.4 bothered you, the 27 might also... I don't have the 35 anymore, but remember them being kind of similar...i'd rate the 27 slightly quieter though. The 35 and 60 were both quite noisy.

the 14 / 23 / 56 are quieter than those...

then the 16 23 35 50 f2 lenses, even more so.

Thanks jjz2.

You are probably right. I have been spoiled by the quick/quiet operation of the "crons" and my zooms.

Sometimes I think my X100V makes too many sounds when focusing.
