This thread may be of interest - it has some samples and was what inspired me to get one in the first place.

It looks like a very good lens and if you need/would like something compact and you like the 21mm focal length I'd say it's a good choice. The metal body and limited build quality will be nice, too. I'd suggest having a look at some samples and seeing whether you like them.
Personally, I've considered one and I'm not sure what I'd use it for. I generally prefer longer focal lengths and, whilst it's very subjective, I haven't been blown away by samples from the DA21 in quite the same way as, say, those from the DA15 or FA77.

If you can stretch to it the Sigma II 24mm seems to be a good
lens for around £70.

For sale is my Tamron 18-250. It's in excellent condition, although not quite mint as it has one or two specks of internal dust and has an aftermarket lens hood. It's optically identical to the Pentax 18-250.
The optics are in good shape, with no scratches, marks or fungus (the dust mentioned previously is normal for a lens of the age and nothing that would affect the pictures). Cosmetically it's in very good condition, as shown in the pictures.
It is supplied with the original box, front and rear caps and aftermarket lens hood (I don't know whether the original hood was an option or people just lose them, but I've also had a Pentax 18-250 which was missing its hood and seen several others advertised without hoods).
Looking at the going rate on eBay, I think that £180 delivered within the UK is reasonable and I'd be happy to investigate postage options to send it further afield if required. Payment preferably by bank transfer please.
