Default Wide Angle: SAL 11-18 or Sigma 10-20? Any idea on the price of the Sigma 1020?

Hi all!

Need some advice on which lens is better between SAL 11-18 and Sigma 10-20. Also the price of Sigma 10-20. Thanks in advance

This has already been extensively discussed, including pricing. Try a search.

Tamron 11-24 just came out. No Sony mount yet.

If you can wait, just wait.
I will wait. Always prefer Tamron to Sigma regardless what the test review say.

There is a new WA lens from Tamron, you may consider it also.

What I can tell you is that the Sigma 12-24 is fantastic, but pricey. You might want to consider the Tamron or the Sony 11-18
