The Pentax lens is excellent. It has been a money maker and a pleasure for me. I have no experience with that particular Sigma lens, but my experience with the Sigma brand in general would give me pause. And I wouldn't buy a fisheye unless you want to shoot fisheye pics. Yes, you can correct in post, but you'll sacrifice image quality. Every time you move a pixel you lose something.
