Incorrect, Chickentender.
I own one, you don't, how would you know?
It's autofocus, and probably has better performance than the M20.
Pinholecam himself explained that the soft corners of the M20 and how far you had to stop it down to get it sharp means he toured New Zealand lately with the Samyang 14mm instead. And that would have been a considered decision, because on a bicycle you want the lightest lenses that can do the job.
The DA12-24 is much smaller than the superb 15-30 monster, by the way. TerryL already has the FA31, he doesn't need its long end.
