They definitely have some weight,
If the mechanics are well build this would be ok.

I'd like buy a TSE 50 L but the price is to high for my budget.

EDIT:
*) found some information it might have some electronics
but details reportedly obtained from a prior exhibition where the lenses were displayed state that both lenses will be manual focus only, though there will be electronic contacts to facilitate lens-body communication.
