I too had the 7-14 for a while but kept getting worried about that bulbous front element. Then returned it for the 9-18. Was sure sorry to see that equivalent 4mm go, but very happy with the reduced size and weight. Good choice.

What is to worry about the front element? I use this lens since 3.5 years now, and no issues yet. The extra field of view is the key to ultra wide photograpy, so in my view the 9-18mm is inferior.
