7artisans 14mm f 2 8 vs laowa 14mm f 4 ff rl zero d?

Both are 14mm manual-focus primes with no stabilisation, so the choice comes down to aperture and mount.

The 7Artisans 14mm f/2.8 is the brighter lens. It lets in more light, which helps indoors and at dusk, and it gives a little more background separation. It's the one I'd pick for most people.

The Laowa 14mm f/4 FF RL Zero-D is the choice if you shoot Leica M, since it lists that mount and the 7Artisans doesn't. Its f/4 is a stop slower, so expect to lean on a tripod or higher ISO in dim light. For landscapes in good light, where you'll likely be stopped down anyway, the difference matters less. See landscape for more on wide-angle shooting.
