Hi folks - current kit lens is a Sony 18-55 F3.5/5.6 - and I'm thinking about what would be a good value UWA....
Any suggestions ?
Ta,

I think you are stuffed for low priced UWA lenses. There are some manual fish-eye lenses on eBay from Russia, but I didn't want a fish-eye.
I think I would stay away from the UWA zooms unless you have the money to go FF and get the CZ
I'm tempted by the Sigma Fisheye 10 F2.8 EX DC HSM

Have you seen the variants of the Samyang 8mm f/3.5 MC Aspherical fisheye? Plenty on evilBay under Samyang or Falcon for £179.99 albeit with metal a-mount. It is MF but the reviews (and there are plenty) are pretty darned impressive as are image samples if you don't want AF.
Thanks JSW - I misunderstood your post and didn't realise you were suggesting a UWA Prime
...so in that case - what's the best value UWA Prime too and are they generally cheaper or the same price but faster glass ?

It isn't cheap lol I think the cheapest I've seen it is £420 from HK and between £500-£600 here
