Since I did not know those models, I expected a much more expensive

model. However, I was surprised:
price [EUR]
Canon EF 2.8/14mm L USM (2508A003) 1750
Nikon AF 2.8/14mm D ED (JAA130DA) 1805
Pentax smc DA 2.8/14mm (21510) 630
Sigma AF 2.8/14mm EX Asp HSM RF 635
Tamron SP AF 2.8/14mm 2.8 Asp IF 1245

They've compared the following lenses: Canon EF 2.8/14 mm L USM,
AF-Nikkor 2.8/14 mm D ED, Pentax DA 2.8/14 mm ED, and Tamron SP
2.8/14
mm asph. IF.
The result is a most pleasant surprise:
lens optical mechanical
Canon 67 % 90 %
Nikon 77 % 90 %
Pentax 89 % 89 %
Tamron 69 % 88 %
