The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Thypoch 35mm F1.4 E and the Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN for their suitability to various photography scenarios:
Size and Weight Comparison
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. Thypoch 35mm F1.4 E weighs 296g, which means it is 29g (8%) lighter than the Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN which has a weight of 325g.
Filter Threads
The Thypoch 35mm F1.4 E has a filter size of 49mm 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 49mm filters that we recommend you to consider for the Thypoch 35mm F1.4 E:
