Panasonic leica dg 9mm f 1 7 vs olympus m zuiko 8mm f 1 8 fisheye pro?

Both lenses are Micro Four Thirds primes with autofocus, and neither is stabilised. They fit the same bodies, including the OM System OM-1, so the choice comes down to the look you want.

The Panasonic Leica DG 9mm f/1.7 frames like 18mm on full frame, with depth of field close to f/3.4. It's the one I'd pick for everyday wide shots, interiors and travel.

The Olympus M.Zuiko 8mm f/1.8 Fisheye PRO frames like 16mm on full frame, with depth of field close to f/3.6. It's weather-sealed, and it's a fisheye, so it bends straight lines on purpose. Get it for creative, exaggerated pictures, not as your main lens.

If you're unsure how aperture translates across sensors, the focal length converter explains it.
