Voigtl nder super nokton 29mm f 0 8 aspherical vs voigtl nder nokton 25mm f 0 95 type ii?

Both are fast, manual-focus primes for Micro Four Thirds, so the choice comes down to framing and how much background blur you want.

The Voigtländer Super Nokton 29mm f/0.8 Aspherical frames like 58mm on full frame and gives about the depth of field of f/1.6 there. It's the tighter, more separating choice, good for portraits and close subjects.

The Voigtländer Nokton 25mm f/0.95 Type II frames like 50mm, so it's a little wider and easier for everyday street and general shooting.

Either one fits a body like the OM System OM-1 Mark II, or the cheaper Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV if you're watching your budget. My pick: the 29mm for portraits, and the 25mm if you want one lens for almost everything.
