I use the sigma 10-20 f/4-5.6 while waiting for a f2.8 replacement. A new lense or a rebadge of the tokina 11-20 would be a welcome addition to the f/2.8 apsc zooms (but NOT at 700€ like the Pentax 12-24).

The latest sigma 10-20 f/3.5 is the fastest UWA zoom available for Pentax, it isn't much slower than the tokina (and IBIS make wonders) and can be an alternative.

These are both very useful lenses. I MUST HAVE a filter thread for what I do.
