Comments about Sony Sony 11-18mm f/4.5-5.6 a (alpha) Mount Digital SLR Ultra Wide Zoom Lens with Hood:

I use the lens for indoor and outdoor shots of homes under construction. The lens is fast enough in a room lit with daylight, but not fast enough for unlit attic spaces. If you have enough light this is an amazing lens. There is only the slightest distortion (barreling) at the widest focal length.

Comments about Sony Sony 11-18mm f/4.5-5.6 a (alpha) Mount Digital SLR Ultra Wide Zoom Lens with Hood:

Overall very nice lens as noted above. Would be better if it went down to a 2.0 f stop. Also would be nicer if it was a little wider such as an 8 or 9 mm since it is really 1.5 times the mm due to the digit sensor. It is terrific in moderate to full light on the seashore, the mountains, the woods and other landscape locations. Not so great in dimly lit theatre or sports locations when trying to get a wide angle view.
