This image is just what I'm looking for from this sort of lens: detail all over, very smooth tonal transitions and lower contrast. It allows you great flexibility in post. Very easy to get as much contrast as you want globally or just in select areas and you can always choose to loose detail if you want. It makes for the perfect digital 'negative' for high contrast scenes that exceed the M8 sensors dynamic range.
Here a simple global tone curve adjustment and USM with a very large radius:
