What image quality should expect when I pair my APO 50mm Cron M with the new SL2?

The 50mm APO Cron-M works excellently on the SL (and SL2, likely, remains to be tested for all but testers). Not entierly to the optical 'perfection' of the SL 50-Cron, but very, very close. And taken the size/weight difference into account, its nothing but fantastic ('downsides': too short hood, some flaring, some vignetting at f2, and fully manual, obviously; but with very high resolution/sharpness across the image field).

I will eventually upgrade to the SL2 and have both the M 50 APO CRON and SL 50 LUX. At f2, once users get their SL2s, I would like comparing these 2 lenses on the SL2.

I have both those lenses and, God willing, expect to receive an SL2 fairly early after they're released, so will reply with some side-by-side comparisons.
