7artisans 60mm f 2 8 2x ultra macro vs voigtl nder macro apo lanthar 65mm f 2 aspherical?

Both are manual-focus macro lenses for full-frame cameras, and they suit different jobs.

The Voigtländer Macro APO-Lanthar 65mm f/2 Aspherical is my pick if you want one lens that does macro and portraits. Its f/2 aperture is brighter, and it's a 1:2 macro that also works as a sharp short portrait lens. It's available for Sony E and Nikon Z.

The 7Artisans 60mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro is the choice if you shoot Canon RF, since it covers that mount and the Voigtländer doesn't. It's slower at f/2.8, so it's less of a portrait lens.

If you're on an APS-C body, both lenses give a longer view, and the sensor sizes guide explains the crop factor.
