I recently bought rvh23’s Loxia 25. It’s very nice. I think it will go well with the Sigma 14-24.
I’ll be interested to see how the Sigma compares against my Canon TSE 24mm. As I still think it as the best corners of any 24mm lens for landscape. It beats the Loxia, though the Loxia is sharper in the centre frame.
Good to hear you're happy with the Loxia 25. I agree that a Loxia 25 or Nokton/Loxia 21 pair perfectly with the Sigma zoom. That's exactly the 2-lens kit I am now using (Nokton 21 in my case) to cover the very large majority of my landscapes. But I expect to only pull out the CV for sunstars/shooting against the sun, as sharpness wise I see no benefit over the Sigma, and color with the Sigma is also very nice.
I'm surprised your TSE is sharper than the Loxia in the corners, unless that's when you center focus. I used the TSE as my only landscape lens for several years, but once I tried the Loxia 21 and 25 (and improved my focus stacking methods to compensate for lack of tilt) I never looked back, partly because of improved corner performance with the Loxias.
