f/2 has WR, is slightly more compact and faster/quieter autofocus; that's where the differences end.

Image quality is a wash, all the talk about "magic" can be attributed to f/1.4; and if money was no object, I would get the f/1.4

Let's be real here, all Fuji lenses have passable autofocus, most of us on this forum are not shooting in the rain, and the size difference is also a wash for most "should I take it" considerations.

I'm not saying the f/2 is bad, but the f/1.4 has f/1.4, there's nothing that can replace that.

I’d be most happy if Fujifilm contemporaneously developed a non aspherical version of the 35 1,4. Cant stand that opinion bokeh. That and improved autofocus would be great. Other than that a great lens.

Opinion bokeh? The blur behind the head?

Good one!! 😎
