Best wide angle lens for the sony a5000?

For the a5000, my pick is the Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary. It's fast for a wide zoom, and at 10-18mm it frames like 15-27mm on full frame. Because the a5000 has no stabilisation in the body, I'd also look at the Sony E 10-18mm f/4 OSS, which is smaller and has optical stabilisation, so it's easier to hand-hold in dim light. If you want to go wider, the Sony E PZ 10-20mm f/4 G reaches a little further and is the cheapest route to a comfortable wide view.

For a quick reminder of how the crop works, the focal length converter is handy, and the Sony a5000 page has the full list of lenses that fit.
