Looking forward to it 
the Sigma, I mean.
My prejudice: very sharp in the center wide open, high resolution, borders at f/2.8 not much better than Nikon 14-24/2.8. Definitely the sweet spot of that lens is less "wide-angle" or "high resolution", but more "fast and sharp at low light situations, with sufficient DoF". And since it's much heavier than the 24/1.4 and has no filter threads, the value of this great lens gets some question marks.
One is the weight, another the AF capability of the whole system (body and lens with PDAF :unsure: ), another the size. Very special piece of glass and more like an "Yes, we can make a f/1.4 ultrawide".
