That's an extremely impressive result: 14mm is actually sharper than 35mm. Almost zero distortion. Vignetting is a bit on the high side but that's not a big deal.

I hope that Fuji will keep amazing us with their upcoming primes. The only lens I'm worried about is 27mm. Depending on the price, distortion and sharpness overall it might become either a must have discreet lens for street photography or yet another 2-nd grade pancake.

that's a pretty solid showing. the lack of distortion is pretty incredible. biogon like!

props for fuji for doing something different and sticking to the plan. the following lens roadmap looks pretty exciting. the 10-24mm f4 even has OIS. i hope they are able to maintain the smaller size of the lenses though. the 1.4 lenses look a bit chunky.
