Panasonic 20mm 1.7 pancake or 24mm 1.4 - help me decide!

[Cyprio]

Venturing into the shrunken world of m 4/3 and got myself a lovely second hand GX1. Loving the versatility of the power zoom kit lens but wanting something with a larger aperture as the low ISO performance isn't that great.

So... would people recommend the pancake 20mm or slightly longer 24mm 1.4. I used to love shooting street shots with my 50mm on a film SLR and wondering how much i would notice the wider 20mm? It makes sense size-wise and financially but i have read that the 24 also has better IQ...

Thanks

The 25/1.4 will provide faster AF and more in the way if bokeh, but the 20/1.7 is extremely useful due to the wider view. Plus it's cheaper on the used market!

Anyone have both? If so what one lives more on your camera?
