Verdict
Pick the 17 mm f/4 if you need a wider field of view and can work with a smaller aperture; its 17 mm focal length and lower price make it the practical choice for environmental shots. The 35 mm f/1.4 stays the better choice if you prioritize low-light performance, subject isolation, or a classic documentary perspective—its faster f/1.4 aperture and 35 mm focal length justify the higher cost.
