No. My main problem is detailed in the OP. In short: There is not even a single lens that can answer all my requirements (fast + wide + small + AF). <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Yakim, I hate to sound this way... but I have a feeling that you've fabricated this problem so that you won't have to buy something. I mean, when photography is important to them, people carry the equipment that will take the shot they need:

You don't have to travel around the world with a two tripod rig probably weighing close to 30kg in total... or not even a Pentax 67... just get yourself 5D2 or a D700 + a 24mm f/1.4 on either mount and stop sending people here round in circles <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> You did say in your o.p. that price wasn't a problem too, you know?
