I don't know why you would be tossing up between these two lenses. They're quite different. And both optically amazing. 25mm is a much more useful focal length for general photography. It's one of my favorite focal lengths. 42.5 is more a specialist lens for portraits, etc., and you will find less uses for it than 25mm.
