Pick the Laowa Argus 33mm f/0.95 if you prioritize a brighter maximum aperture for low-light performance and shallower depth of field. The Viltrox AF 33mm f/1.4 stays the better choice if autofocus is essential for your shooting needs, as the Laowa is manual focus only. Both share the same price, so the decision hinges on aperture versus autofocus.
