superb wide angle lens,
After buying an A-100 Sony I discovered just how exceptional the Sony 18mm-200mm lens is. I still have all my Minolta AF lenses, which was a reason to buy the A-100, but in fact I very rarely get them out of their cases. The 18-200 is very sharp to edge of frame at both ends of the zoom range, has very good colour rendition and contrast, has no barrel distortion or pincushioning and zooms smoothly. I travel all over the world with this camera and lens combination and have found I need nothing else.
However, when I saw the Sony 11mm/18mm wide angle zoom lens passing through Frankfurt airport, I thought it might be useful for the rare occasions when the 18mm is not quite wide enough. Fortunately I waited to buy until I returned to the US, where it cost 50% of the price in Euros. This is another exceptional lens, with quite astonishing performance. As with any super wide angle lens, there is a risk of distortion on straight vertical lines, but far less than I’d expected. The 11mm/18mm is now in my travel kit. It’s great.

Great lens. Be aware that it is a DT lens and therefore will only work on APS-C sensors. Basically, if you are never going to shoot old Minolta 35mm SLRs or the upcoming A900 body ($2500+ probably), don’t worry about it.
Best Buy had this on sale, free shipping, for $400 early Feb. 2008.
So look for that number or lower on this lens for best price.
