Best budget lens for the sony nex 7?

The NEX-7 is an APS-C body, so every lens frames tighter on it than it would on full frame. I can't give you prices here, so check current ones yourself, but these are the cheaper, simpler options on its list:

• Sony E 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS is the sensible everyday zoom, and its stabilisation helps with slow shutter speeds, which the NEX-7 body doesn't provide.
• Sony E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS is a compact, stabilised alternative if you want something lighter.
• Viltrox AF 9mm f/2.8 Air is a small, inexpensive wide prime, good for landscapes and interiors.

I'd put a good lens ahead of a better body, as my first camera guide explains.
