Pick the Samyang 12mm f/2.8 if you need an ultra-wide fisheye perspective for creative distortion or tight spaces and can work with manual focus. Choose the Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.7 if you prefer a brighter aperture for low light, autofocus convenience, and a more natural field of view for street or environmental portraits. The Samyang stays the better choice if budget is critical, while the Viltrox offers faster shooting and shallower depth of field at a modest price premium.
