Hi Amita, Having spent a bit of time with the fast Sigma on a friends Minolta I think I prefer the rendition and sharpness of the Pentax 20/2.8 regardless of the speed. Though Frantiseks sample image from the EX Sigma look far better than I remember it at f2.8. I can post you a some full frame A20/2.8 JPG images at various f-stops if you want?
