The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the 7artisans 10mm f2.8 II L and the Sigma 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art for their suitability to various photography scenarios:
Size and Weight Comparison
The size of a lens is a crucial factor to consider when comparing two lenses. Sigma 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art is the longer of the two lenses at 126mm. The 7artisans 10mm f2.8 II L with a length of 95mm, is 31mm shorter. Besides being longer, the Sigma 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art also has a larger diameter of 95mm compared to the 7artisans 10mm f2.8 II L's 75mm diameter.
The weight of a lens is equally significant as its external dimensions, particularly if you intend to handhold your camera and lens combination for extended periods. 7artisans 10mm f2.8 II L weighs 602g, which means it is 568g (48%) lighter than the Sigma 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art which has a weight of 1170g.
