Veydra MFT Lenses?

I know there are posts about compatible I2 lenses but, none seem to address Veydra lenses. They are specialized for cinematography and smaller than competing lenses. Does anyone have experience with Veydra lenses on either the X5, X5r or X5s?

I have no experience with them and never heard of them so I had to look them up. They look like beautiful lenses! Lets compare just 2 of them, the 12 and 25 mm with the approved Olympus lenses, I will not even bring cost into this. Maybe I am reading their specs incorrectly but their weight would never work on the gimbal we have to work with on the camera mounts you have asked about. If we are setting these up on an M600 or above, with a different gimbal assembly they could be a great choice.

Yep, I didn't even look at the weights since they are supposed to be lighter than regular cine lenses. Too bad...
