I would take the 14mm. If you need to you can crop, but remember you can’t crop what’s not there!

Not if you stitch together a pano

OP, I had and sold the 23, and have the 14 as well. The 14 is definitely sharper and has a cool character to it. The 23 is great at a distance but looks awful on close-up shots. Depends what you like to shoot.

Also, if you’re expecting dust or moisture, heavily consider the 23.
