The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Thypoch 75mm F1.4 M and the Leica Thambar-M 90mm F2.2 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 Thambar-M 90mm F2.2 is the longer of the two lenses at 90mm. The Thypoch 75mm F1.4 M with a length of 78mm, is 12mm shorter. On the other hand, the Thypoch 75mm F1.4 M has a larger diameter of 64mm compared to the Leica Thambar-M 90mm F2.2's 57mm 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 75mm F1.4 M weighs 372g, which means it is 128g (25%) lighter than the Leica Thambar-M 90mm F2.2 which has a weight of 500g.
