Thanks for the advice. That is the big choice really: which 35mm? I do not care too much about lens hoods. I care very much about image quality, in particular that intangible 'magic glass' quality that some lenses seem to have. From the images I have looked at, the f1.4 seems to have a more attractive rendering than the f2.0. (And I do pixel peep, so corner sharpness stopped down for landscapes matters to me.) But I am open-minded on the 'which 35mm' question...

If you want magic, you'll buy 1.4 version.

If you want magic, you can concentrate on light,  framing, and content in photography.
