Because I already have the K24/2.8 and numerous people have said that it's somewhat better than the K24/2.8 wrt distortion. I don't know if that's true, but if it has characteristics that are different than the 2.8, then the two might compliment one another. The other reason is that I like nice K-mount lenses. I have several focal lengths in various iterations, but not the 24mm.
