Ty..
yeap i think i need some zoom, but the 35mm have good low light. (i don't take low light because they look too "noised").
I don't quite get something, my kit lens are 18mm-55mm. Wide angle are 16mm, that it's only 2 mm.. so the FoV (degree) will be almost the same??
I'd suggest a 2-lens combo: SEL18200 + SEL1018. The 18-200mm is pretty heavy and about as much as I want to carry all day, but if you need wider than 18mm, the flexibility of the 10-18mm is probably a good choice. If you also want good low light ability indoors, then consider the new SEL35F18 or maybe the Zeiss 24/1.8.
Btw, a small change in focal length at the long end of a zoom makes a tiny difference in the field of view; a small change in focal length at the short end (like 18mm to 16mm) makes a big difference.

Although a good combination, that is way out of their price range. Either one of those lenses individually would blow their budget.
The 16 plus UWA gives him a cheap route into wide angle (1/3 of the cost of the wide angle zoom although the zoom is far superior in IQ).
His other options are a tricky one. If he wants low light and indoors then he should get the 35mm. If he wants a portrait lens then he should get the 50mm. If he wants more reach then he should get the 55-210. His budget cant stretch to all of these though so he is going to have to make some compromises.
The 55-210 would probably give him the most versitility. And he can save up for some faster lenses later on.
I've excluded the SIGMA lenses due to their lack of stabilisation and his wish to them in low light.
(Assumed its a guy...)
