35mm Summilux asph pre-FLE vs 50mm Summilux asph late version

Ignore the different focus length issue, which one would perform and more practical in low light handheld condition?
Both lenses have been replaced by the newest models (FLE and 50mm APO), however, what other people online are saying that they have the best bokeh in 35mm and 50mm.
The 35mm summilux have focus shift problem but seem this is minor otherwise it would not be able to sell in second hands market for a long time now.

Which one would you choose base on sharpness, bokeh, practical at f1.4? Is there any reason not to get any of them?

on digital it would be the 50mm asph.optically excellent with smooth bokeh.

Both excellent lens. Depends on situation and subject.

Thank you inzite Hing and Sawlo Hing for your reply. It was a late night and I didn't extend the reason behind the question. I have a voigtlander 35mm f1.2 apparently is doing the job, both in day and low light situation. However the more I shoot with this lens, more of the photos are soft and giving me classic feel while wide open, love it but sometimes I just want to capture the landscape or decorations inside the house and this beautiful lens just not sharp enough (or not pop enough for my taste), especially when I compared it to my old 50mm summicron DR. Then again extra f stop would be helpful in low light situation for 50mm (with film).
So I have ask myself if I kinda upgrade my 35mm gear or should I get 50mm f1.4 cover?
50mm APO is the king of sharpness but there is not much different with film and doesn't help for one more f stop. The 35mm summilux FLE have fixed the focus shift problem but with the previous one I could use live view digital to actually adjust it myself.
So base on the all four, which one would everybody use most? Which one actually give best sharpness in low light condition (in practical way)? Thank you

i think it's the best choice if you can work with a 50mm focal length.

i just came back from disneyworld and i took my a7s with the 50 asph as well.

Yes thank you JCR Hing, 35mm would give me more space to work with too, but then again I have already got VM 35m f1.2, so it is really hard to convince myself to get this gem.

Both of them are excellent lenses, but I am afraid of oil leakage problem on aperture blades, so I chose 35/1.4 FLE.

I once wanted to buy a used 11891 but observed oil on the blades.

Some Chings in HKLFC discussed it several months ago.

50 asph 確實是和digital body很搭配.
