Using the 23mm f1,4 on the X-E2

I have five days to decide if I want to get the 23mm before the current US sale ends. I recently bought the 14mm and am really enjoying it. I particularly like the AF/MF snapshot feature like I had with my Olympus 12mm and 17mm lenses when I was using M43 and know I will use it a lot. It seems to me that my X-E2 with the 14mm and 23mm would make a perfect two lens kit for what I shoot and when I was shooting film, mostly with rangefinders, the 35mm was always my favorite lens.

But I never bought the 23mm because of reviews and user comments saying how large and heavy it is. I have never actually seen one or tried it out because every time I go to my local camera retailer, the 23mm is never in stock. So I'm looking to get some feedback about using the 23mm with the X-E2.
