Wide-angle weather-reistant lenses for Pentax?

Sigma 8-16 f/4.5-5.6, Pentax 12-24 f/4, or Pentax 14 f/2.8?

I've ordered a Sigma 10-20 based on earlier comments on this thread and good reviews online, but it's returnable and I'm starting to have second thoughts based on multiple comments about image quality problems toward the edges of frames when shooting at 10mm. So I'll shoot a few images at 10mm and see what I think.

Alternatives, although much more expensive, are the Sigma 8-16 f/4.5-5.6, Pentax 12-24 f/4, or Pentax 14 f/2.8. My goal for this lens is to shoot wide-angle landscape photography with a minimum of fisheye effect, and for that I'm thinking that if the Sigma 10-20 doesn't do the job then the Pentax 12-24 f/4 may be the next best choice. Does anyone have experience with that lens?
