F/1.4 and I’d pay whatever.

How about F1.4 but consumer need manual unlock lens (expand) before use via retractable design?

Like the XF1 and X10/20/30… no thanks! I found it cute at first but it quickly became irritating. Also they (the XF1 in particular) were prone to ribbon cable failures in the lens, and the X-Pro3 hints that Fuji still haven’t fully solved that sort of issue.

Similar to Nikon Z DX 16-50mm F3.5-6.3 VR lens, the lens has a button-free retractable design - all you have to do is rotate the zoom ring to extend the lens before you can press the shutter button to take a picture.

But, never hear any QA problem in Nikon Z DX 16-50mm F3.5-6.3 VR lens
