The quality of the f/2 50mm is generally considered to be fine, and in fact for close up photography (w/ teleconverter or diopter lens or extension tubes) it is probably as good as you can get short of getting a macro lens. Only you know if the 1 stop** difference is important--but likely not. But using f/1.4 or f/2 on the faster lens may make the out of focus areas look different/better (bokeh) but since you don't mention this it likely is not a consideration at this point. Usually buying a "better" lens or "better" dslr does very little compared to better technique and better post processing the images.

**My bad, should be 1 stop.
