I've read multiple conflicting posts on the issue - can anyone confirm once and for all if the 23 f2 is actually 35mm equivalent? Some are saying the lens is as short as 31mm equivalent.

It's wider than the 1.4 -- not sure how much, but it's noticeable. I've used them side by side and you can tell the difference. My sense is that the 1.4 is true and the 2.0 is wide, but I have nothing scientific to base that on.
