The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Thypoch 35mm F1.4 RF and the Canon EF 35mm F1.4L II USM 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. Canon EF 35mm F1.4L II USM is the longer of the two lenses at 106mm. The Thypoch 35mm F1.4 RF with a length of 63mm, is 43mm shorter. Besides being longer, the Canon EF 35mm F1.4L II USM also has a larger diameter of 80mm compared to the Thypoch 35mm F1.4 RF's 54mm diameter.
