The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Sigma 24mm F2 DG DN C and the Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN 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 24mm F2 DG DN C is the longer of the two lenses at 72mm. The Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN with a length of 65mm, is 7mm shorter. On the other hand, there is no difference between the max diameters of these lenses, both coming at 70mm.

Filter Threads
The Sigma 24mm F2 DG DN C has a filter size of 62mm whereas the Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN has a 58mm diameter. Larger filters are generally more expensive than the smaller ones given all the other features are equal.
Below are links to the 62mm filters that we recommend you to consider for the Sigma 24mm F2 DG DN C:
And these are the 58mm filters that we recommend for the Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN:
Lens Mounts
Both the Sigma 24mm F2 DG DN C and the Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN has the same Leica L lens mount. Some of the latest released cameras that are compatible with the Leica L lenses are Leica SL3, Panasonic S5 II and Panasonic S5 II X.
Sigma 24mm F2 DG DN C is also available in Sony E mount.
Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN is also available in Sony E mount.
