You might want to consider the Sigma 8-16mm zoom as it's probably sharper and more flexible than the 15mm LTD.
[edit] On looking at my MTF graphs in Excel it seems that the Sigma is sharper wide-open (from the center to the edges) but after that the 15mm LTD is a tad sharper in the center and still not as good at the edges and corners. It seems that the DA 16-50 is actually better at 16mm than the 15mm (@ 15mm) wide open too.. Maybe you should weigh up the numbers before committing to this lens.
