Best budget lens for the sony fx30?

The site doesn't list prices, so I can't rank these by cost. Going by the lens type, though, these are the cheapest-looking options for the FX30 in its catalogue:

• Sony E 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS: a simple kit-style zoom, like 27-82mm on this body. It's a good everyday choice.
• Sony FE 28-60mm f/4-5.6: a small, light zoom, like 42-90mm on the FX30. It suits video and walk-around use.

If you want to save money, my advice is in Your first camera: a modest zoom with a good body beats a fancy body with a poor lens. Keep some budget for a spare battery too, since buying used means budgeting for a new one.
