7artians vs Panasonic Lens for my Indoor Setup.

I'm currently in the process of changing my setup quite a bit. In short, I wanna have my Lumix S5 II setup on a desk clamp mount above my monitor (kind of like a streamer setup). The current lens I've got 24-70mm is too heavy for that and too overkill to just sit around there forever since I film/stream every day pretty much.

I wanna have AF and at least 3.5 aperture. The mm range I need is anything 30-40mm. I prefer it to be vario but can still make a fixed 35mm work. Maybe even 40mm but I'm a bit unsure there.

Preferably a lighter shorter lens since the camera will be mounted on a desk clamp that holds upto 3kg. I know that's also an overkill but I wanna be safe.

I've looked at the 7artians and the Panasonics but there isn't one that ticks all the boxes. I think the closest one is the 7artians 40mm AF f/2 as some people have said it acts more as a 36-37mm but I don't know how true that is.

Would appreciate any sort of advice.
