I have both the 20mm and the 14mm, so I tend to read any thread (e.g. here in this forum) about either, and I've never seen any evidence that the mark-i and mark-ii have any IQ difference. Someone once claimed that the 20mm mark-ii was somehow faster than the mark-i, but there was no evidence provided, and the innards of the old and new versions appear to be identical from what I've seen, and other users claimed no difference in speed.
