Pick the Laowa 9mm if you need an ultra-wide rectilinear field of view for architecture, interiors, or tight spaces and can work with a slightly slower f/2.8 aperture. The Sirui 35mm stays the better choice if you prioritize a faster f/1.8 aperture for low light or shallow depth-of-field, prefer a standard-wide perspective, or want the creative stretch of anamorphic imagery—provided the 10 EUR premium fits your budget.
