12-24 zoom or 14mm prime
It's a very good lens. My only hesitation in investing in one would be that there is a new DA wide zoom on the lens roadmap, maybe this year, maybe next. It looks like it will cover the same range, more or less. So one might expect that it will be WR, which would be more than handy.
It also focusses real close, which is well handy
Can't compare with the 12-24 as I don't have one.

Pentax also have a wide zoom on the road map for this year. Details a are few at the moment
if it was a DA* then i would definitely wait as I would like the weather proofing. However if the little green band is anything to go by then it looks like it's a straight replacement

Never use the 14mm tbh as it takes up the same space in my bag as the Sigma 12-24mm so it stays at home 100% of the time.
