After more thinking about pros and cons I decided to give this lens a chance.
The last decision factor was how it would balance on my G9, and in the end the lens felt less heavy than it looked on the images - and IMO balances fine on the G9.
The focal length range is very useful for my application and with the wider end than a normal midrange zoom and the faster f-stop and the round apparture I expect that it gives me some interesting benefits over a normal midrange zoom. The G9 with this lens is not a compact, but the G9 isnt a compact anyways.
