From what I've read, the Sigma 19mm 2.8 is a very good lens and reasonable also.

It is very sharp and great value. It is large, though. On my Nex it was slowish to focus, I'm not sure if AF is better on m43.

It focuses quickly and accurately on a M43 mount.

Personally, I'd go for the 12mm Zuiko, or wait for the mid-June release of the 15mm Leica, rather than getting the 17mm Zuiko now. Both are superior lenses IMO. You can try the 19mm Sigma to tide you over until the 15mm is released.
