Sometimes you just need a wide. Yes, stitching can be done...but not as fun.

Here are some shots taken in Virgin Gorda with OM4Ti + 16mm fisheye and 21mm/2 
(provia):

The fisheye I found, if the horizon is centered, the distortion is not bad to 
look at. The OM 21/2 was one of my favorite lenses (along with 100mm/2 and some 
others).

Now I have two lenses for my A7 III: 24-105 and 70-300. I have used a Canon 
16-35 in the past.

Sony has an 11-24/4, 16-35/4 and 16-35/2.8 GM. There are other brands out 
there, as well as some primes. The 16-35/2.8 GM is $$$ at about $2100. There is 
a Zeiss Batis 18mm/2.8, Venus Optics Laowa 12mm/2.8 and 15/2...

Ken Rockwell also points out that image stabilization is problematic with 
ultrawides, since it is impossible to do from center to edge.

My question is what other's opinion would be for ultra wide?
