Pick the Laowa 9mm if you need an ultra-wide prime for landscapes, architecture, or tight interiors and can work with its slower f/5.6 aperture. The Sigma 65mm stays the better choice if you prefer a faster f/2 lens for portraits, low-light shooting, or subject isolation, given its near-identical price and more versatile focal length.
