12-24mm or 16-50mm S for landscape

I have the former lens and love it. However I now have the chance to buy a used, still under warranty, latter lens for under £600 and am finding it difficult to decide whether get it or not.  Obviously the former is slower but lighter and has a slightly wider angle (but is 4mm that much when you can simply move position?). The latter is a lot heavier but covers 24-50 mm (i have the 50-150).  I haven't found any IQ comparisons to help me. As ever any thoughtful comments would be most welcome.
