Canon ts e 24mm f 3 5l ii vs laowa 25mm f 2 8 2 5 5x ultra macro?

These two lenses do very different jobs, so the choice comes down to what you shoot.

The Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II is my pick for architecture and landscapes. It's a manual-focus tilt-shift lens that mounts only on Canon EF, and on full frame it frames as a plain 24mm.

The Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5X Ultra Macro is for close-up work. It magnifies from 2.5x to 5x life size and can't focus any further away. It's also manual focus, but it fits many more mounts, including Sony E, Nikon Z and Canon RF.

If you want a wide lens for buildings and scenery, go with the Canon. If you shoot very small subjects, go with the Laowa. For how focal lengths change on different sensors, see sensor sizes.
