Thank you very much for your answers! I decided to start with the 28-105 and for a future upgrade maybe go for a DFA 50mm 1.4.
The weather sealing was another point which made the decision easier ;)

Thanks for your answers so far! It seems as if the consensus favors the DFA 28-105 clearly over the Sigma. If i go this way the saved money would also allow another used prime lens or sth like that...

One thing that makes the sigma very interesting is the superb optics and sharpness everyone talks about😅
But not sure if someone can see a difference in normal prints?

Astro: well it would be nice to have the opportunity trying it out a little bit. But no major decision point.

The 24-70 is also interesting, yet another price class. Is 2.8 vs 3.5 worth it?

Hey,

i recently bought my first Pentax (K1) together with an old prime lens (M 50mm 1.7).
Now i want to get my first „new“ lens for the K1, but the decision is sort of hard for me...
Either the Sigma 35mm Art 1.4 or the DFA 28-105mm. According to the reviews both should be really fine lenses.
At the moment the primary uses would be Nature, Landscape, travel, Astro(never tried seriously) and maybe some portrait at festivities. The DFA seems to offer very much flexibility for a great price, but lacks a bit of aperture... the Sigma on the other hand should be very crispy, full of light but has the limitation of a prime lens. I would be glad to hear suggestions and experiences from you. Thanks👍
