Check the aperture blades in the 1.4 to be sure they are moving as freely as the 1.7. I had a 35/3.5 doing the same thing, the blades were just slightly sluggish. Cleaning them solved the problem. The blades are apparently given more time to respond when the green button is pushed then they are during the actual exposure.
