I don't think slow and variable are an issue.
It is a compact lens, Pentax always have and continue to do compact.

maybe one day it will replace my slow DA21

I just thought I'd share a few pictures with y'all. They've all been taken with the Q around Grenoble in the French alps and are part of my ongoing blog project of walking the dog along with the Q in a pocket. Enjoy!

mmm Pentax's sharpest lens I like it a lot. Its organic lines look like it was made for the K-01 and the weight balances the K-5 nicely I tend to use it for product shots and macro rather than normal use. The long throw focus rack seems a bit slow for that.I'm fortunate to have its 1.4 sibling to compliment it. The only thing I miss is quickshift but less important with a macro.
cheers

hang on...product photograph ?
the 90 might be too long then.
I use the FA50/2.8 for that.
Maybe go with dougf8's ideal of tubes on something shorter
