Owned and sold on both. I do plan on re-buying one, and it's an easy choice, the 1.4 all that way. Sure, it's not WR, it's noisier [people do tend to exaggerate this] and a tad slower [also gets exaggerated, never missed a shot using it on my old XT1, not so worried about it on my XH1] - but it's the better looking lens for one, it's sharper in my experience and that extra stop of light plus better close focusing can be a God send if you like you close up and personal photography

Re. AF- speed, I'm not at all impressed with the 35 2.0 on my X-T1. Except in good light, it's actually slower than using a manual focus lens. Besides, it has a nasty tendency to focus on the background when making close-ups.
