Thanks Brian. Actually the 28mm adds some heft to the Q and it feels
like a substantial camera yet balanced and I don't feel like it will
slip from my hands. So I think it helps steady my hands. It's the darn
manual focus I have yet to master.

Very nice selection. The M 28 looks to be a good fit for the Q.
I assume these were hand held. I find it very difficult to hand hold
steadily with anything other than the dedicated Q lenses. But it's
early days and I haven't yet put any serious effort into using third
party lenses via adapters.
