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 Summarit-M 50mm 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. Thypoch 50mm F1.4 M is the longer of the two lenses at 69mm. The Leica Summarit-M 50mm F2.4 ASPH with a length of 33mm, is 36mm shorter. Besides being longer, the Thypoch 50mm F1.4 M also has a larger diameter of 53mm compared to the Leica Summarit-M 50mm F2.4 ASPH's 52mm diameter.
