U can crop but that won't change the distortion in faces that you''ll get using the 12 for portraits unless you plan full length environmental portraits. For that matter the 17.5 is probably a bit wide for closer portraits as well.

More than a bit wide. Portrait lenses are generally in the range of 85-105mm (full frame), or about 40 to 50mm on m43.
