The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Thypoch 50mm F1.4 M and the Leica Noctilux-M 75mm F1.25 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. Leica Noctilux-M 75mm F1.25 ASPH is the longer of the two lenses at 91mm. The Thypoch 50mm F1.4 M with a length of 69mm, is 22mm shorter. Besides being longer, the Leica Noctilux-M 75mm F1.25 ASPH also has a larger diameter of 74mm compared to the Thypoch 50mm F1.4 M's 53mm diameter.
