Quiet, light, and wide lenses for A99 video?

Brand new A99 user here, looking for some recommendations for lenses to use for video with AF on.
My criteria:
Quiet. Silent focus in AF mode with the onboard mics.
Light, so i can hand hold with one hand easily.
Wider than 50mm. I have the DT 35mm, which is both quiet and light, but I'm looking for wider than the APS-C mode ~55mm equivalent. Something in an effective 24 - 30mm range.
From this forum, I've gathered that the Sony 16-50MM is quiet bc of the SSM and good for video. The range would be fine for indoor video in APS-C mode on the A99... A bit heavier than I want.
Anything lighter? Totally okay with 3rd party or Ebay Minolta lenses.
(If Sony would copy Canon's ultra slient, flyweight 40mm pancake, I'd be all over it.)
thanks.
