I was saving for the DA21, planning to trade in the Sigma when I have enough cash. But, I am enjoying the Sigma a lot, so maybe I should hang onto it and got for DA40 instead...
Drawbacks - Not very flare resistant (I've seen a lot worse tho), it's not SMC Pentax, it's not as wide, and no autofocus. A bit bigger, and build quality mediocre (I am scared to use the Aperture ring it's so flimsy...)
Plus side - VERY sharp, faster, great macro and bokeh. Nice 36mm focal length on APS-C, and FF compatible.
Much cheaper.
So, questions for people who have used both:
Which do you prefer? Why?
Which has better IQ?
Is there a noticeable difference between 21mm and 24mm?
Please no comments along the line of 'only you can decide blah blah...' I know that, but internet forums are for talking about stuff you wanna buy, if you don't want to play, stay away!
