The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB and the Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH 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. TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB is the longer of the two lenses at 63mm. The Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH with a length of 61mm, is 2mm shorter. Besides being longer, the TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB also has a larger diameter of 63mm compared to the Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH's 55mm 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. Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH weighs 325g, 42% (237g) lighter than the TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB's weight of 562g.
Filter Threads
The TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB has a filter size of 58mm whereas the Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH has a 46mm diameter. Larger filters are generally more expensive than the smaller ones given all the other features are equal.
Below are links to the 58mm filters that we recommend you to consider for the TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB:
And these are the 46mm filters that we recommend for the Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH:
Lens Mounts
The TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB has the M42 lens mount whereas the Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH has the Leica M lens mount. Some of the latest released cameras that are compatible with these mounts are Leica M EV1, Leica M11-D and Pixii Max for the M42 Mount and Leica M EV1, Leica M11-D and Pixii Max for the Leica M Mount.
Focal Range
Both lenses have the same focal range of
75mm but while TTArtisan 75mm F1.5 SB has the fastest aperture of
F1.5, the Leica Summarit-M 75mm F2.4 ASPH's widest aperture value is
F2.4.
