Sigma released a handful of its Art and Contemporary K-mount lenses, but many have gone out of production; you can still get the 30mm F1.4 Art for APS-C and 35mm F1.4 Art for full-frame, but that's it.

If you like rugged, weatherproof cameras, big, bright optical viewfinders and tactile ergonomics, Pentax kit is for you.
