Pick the Samyang 14mm f/2.8 if you need the widest possible field of view for landscapes or architecture and can accept a slightly dimmer maximum aperture. Choose the Samyang 20mm f/1.8 if low-light performance or shallower depth of field is more important to you, and the extra 6 mm on the long end won’t cramp your shooting style—both for a near-identical budget.
