How does the 30mm f/2 compare to PL 25mm and Sony E 35mm?

Hi all,

Currently equipped with LX5 and NX10 + 30mm f/2 I'v been sitting on the fence for almost a year on how to upgrade for a better low-light kit. Given intended use (evenings, toddlers, some landscapes) I am looking for the best combo body + 1 normal lens + 1 WA

I am thinking about the following options

A  m43 (GX1 or epl5) + PL 25 + O12 or P14

B  nx (210 or 300) + 30 + 16 or 20

C  nex6 + 35 + 16 or some MF WA (Voigtlander?)

fuji is out unless AF gets toddler-compliant in XE2 or through FW update...

If you have real world experience with any two of the above, which did you prefer and why? I love the samsung colors on my NX10 but keep reading good things of the PL25 and the Nex6 sensor

Thanks for your thoughts

Chopf
