Pick the Nokton 35mm f/1.2 II if you prioritize a brighter maximum aperture for low-light performance and shallower depth of field. The Nokton Classic 35mm f/1.4 II stays the better choice if you prefer a slightly smaller, lighter lens with a classic rendering and still-excellent low-light capability at a matching price. Both deliver the same focal length and build compatibility, so the decision hinges solely on aperture preference.
