"To infinity and beyond with Neutrino coating"
p.s. Sorry couldn't resist but that lens really looks promising.

Yes, that is reality, but it is far from perfect for me because it is too big and too heavy and that is the main reason why I'm still not sure about that lens.
I don't need so wide and so fast lens but I need much smaller lens with similar IQ.
Pentax FA 20-35mm f/4 has ideal specification for me including size and weight and IQ is good but I'm not sure is it good enough for the K-1.
I would like to se D-FA 20-35mm f/4 WR in lens roadmap, but that probably won't happened (soon).

Dear Pentaxians, I have two qustions regarding Samyang 14mm f/2.8 and Sigma 20mm f/1.8:
1. Does every Samyang (not Rokinon) 14mm F2.8 ED AS IF UMC has 'A' position on aperture ring like on picture here Samyang 14mm F2.8 ED AS IF UMC Lens Reviews - Samyang Lenses - Pentax Lens Review Database ?
I'm asking this because I could buy that lens in K mount only through online store but pictures there are not for K mount and I'm a little suspicious because of that.
It's a deal breaker for me if it doesn't have 'A' position.
2. What are your experiences and opinions about Sigma 20mm F1.8 EX Aspherical DG ?
There are a few cheap second hand Sigmas 20mm f/1.8 on local market. I don't have any experience with that lens in any mount and I'm a a little suspicious because of a bad ratings here Sigma 20mm F1.8 EX Aspherical DG DF RF Lens Reviews - Sigma Lenses - Pentax Lens Review Database
From reviews I see two disadvantages: it's not sharp wideopen @1.8 and it is big and heavy for what it does. I need the lens to be very sharp at f/2.8 and weight is not a problem because it is a temporary solution until I save enough money for D-FA 15-30.
Thank you in advance!
