I'm about 90% set on the Sony a6000 myself for some upcoming travel, but I'm wondering how you guys are finding the lens selection? Anyone here using an lens adapter with their Canon glass?

Specifically the biggest thing I'd be looking for is a fairly wide angle lens. I've got a Canon 10-18 that I've been loving on my DSRL, so I'm looking to get somewhere in the 10-14mm range... or ideally just slap my Canon 10-18mm onto an adapter and deal with the manual focus.

But it also looks like this Wide Angle conversion Lens on the 16mm pancake lens offers a more native solution with proper aperture/AF control.

TL;dr: Anyone have a workable wide angle solution with their Sony A6000?
I have a Metabones adapter for my a6000. I'm very happy with it, although autofocus doesn't work with some Canon lenses, and when it does work it's noticeably slower.

Sony has a 10-18mm lens that is excellent. Trey Ratcliff has a review of it.
