Voigtl nder color skopar 35mm f 3 5 aspherical vs zeiss c biogon t 35mm f 2 8 zm?

Both of these are 35mm manual-focus primes for full-frame Leica M bodies, and neither has stabilisation. They fit the same list of M cameras, from the M9 through the M11, so the choice comes down to aperture.

I'd pick the Zeiss C Biogon T\* 35mm f/2.8 ZM if you shoot indoors, at dusk, or want a little more background separation. Its f/2.8 opens about a third of a stop wider than the alternative.

The Voigtländer Color-Skopar 35mm f/3.5 Aspherical is the slower of the two. If most of your shooting is in good daylight, such as street, travel, or landscapes, f/3.5 will do the job, and you won't miss the extra stop much.

For how aperture changes depth of field on different sensors, see the focal length converter.
