They're both really good, I've had the 35mm for a year because why not, it was dirt cheap and even though it's not my favorite length i ended up using it more than i thought i would since it's the super small and it's also WR, I got away bring it to concerts since the camera/lens would fit in my coat's pocket. The 50 on the other hand, not as good wide open, color fringe that quickly goes away by f2.5 and by 2.8(2.8-4, drops after that) is one of the sharpest fuji lenses today, not sure I love mine, it's not as small but i'm still going to keep it for hiking/landscape. I would chose the 35, you can still portrait work with it and you'll find it more useful when you can only bring one lens with you.
