this is a wonderful value. if you buy the converter with it you can get 12mm which is great for real estate images in small rooms and the 2.8 gives plenty of light.

Very good value and combined with VCLECU1 High Definition Wide Angle Conversion Lens, creates a lot of picture composition options.

In summary, after nearly three years of shooting with the Panasonic G3, Sony RX100 (original version), and Sony NEX 5n, though Sony mirrorless is a superior camera and an excellent value, wide angle lens options are severely limited, especially on a budget

Panasonic GM-1 + 12-32mm kit lens is a great value, and I've actually played with one in the camera shop, but I've got a Sony NEX 5n

At <$250, this lens is a great value

I've mounted this lens and camera on a Steady Dragon stabilizer and gotten some nice results too (search NEX and SD the video sharing site that starts with "v" A great value--I plan on getting the ultra wide converter soon. :-)

It's not as sharp as I would like either and is also only 2.8 but does a much better job all around

f/2.8 Wide-Angle Lens is an outstanding lens for Sony E Mount cameras like the NEX
