The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Thypoch 35mm F1.4 X and the Voigtlander 35mm F1.2 Nokton 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. Voigtlander 35mm F1.2 Nokton is the longer of the two lenses at 78mm. The Thypoch 35mm F1.4 X with a length of 64mm, is 14mm shorter. Besides being longer, the Voigtlander 35mm F1.2 Nokton also has a larger diameter of 63mm compared to the Thypoch 35mm F1.4 X's 54mm 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. Thypoch 35mm F1.4 X weighs 297g, which means it is 193g (39%) lighter than the Voigtlander 35mm F1.2 Nokton which has a weight of 490g.
Filter Threads
The Thypoch 35mm F1.4 X has a filter size of 49mm whereas the Voigtlander 35mm F1.2 Nokton has a 52mm diameter. Larger filters are generally more expensive than the smaller ones given all the other features are equal.
