I am in the same boat lately. The only reason I haven't decided yet us that I don't mind waiting for the rumored 13mm 1.4 from Viltrox and 16mm 1.4 from Sigma to see how they perform.

I also want to cover as many genres as possible with one lens (astro, architecture, landscape). I am aware it doesn't work like this but since I am not a pro it is fine.

If astro was out of the question I would go with the 10-24. Astro is also the same reason that I hesitate to go for 14mm 2.8 so I am looking for a fast-wide combo hence why I wait for the 2 lenses I mentioned at top. I have tried Samyang 12mm but I didn't like it.

If you cannot wait I think the solution that would work well would be 16mm 1.4 despite having coma wide open.

For my opinion, 16mm or 18mm f1.4 is more suitable what i want to shoot. I just don't have any experince of this kind of photography, so i don't wanna make any mistake
