 I've heard that's not a bad lens.

 If you are on a tight budget I can suggest the Tokina SL 17mm f/3.5.  It's not 
a spectacular lens but is very good for its price.  It compared favourably 
against the Pentax 15mm, until I did the contrast/flare test.  It even has 
surprisingly low distortion for such a cheap ultrawide.
