At this price point, this lens is fun for playing around with ultrawide shooting, and it works fine at 16mm with an EF to R adapter. I personally don't expect to find a quality selection of modern generation mirrorless lenses below $200, but this lens still finds its way into my camera bag from time to time.

Full frame equivalents of 17.6mm-25.6mm isn't exactly ultra-wide by any measure. Talk to me when you get 10mm or 11mm full-frame.

An 11mm lens on APS-C is a 17.6mm full-frame equivalent, giving a 104° field of view.
According to professional education benchmarks like the CPP (Certified Professional Photographer) exam curriculum, standard wide-angle ends at 24mm. Anything wider than 24mm is classified as ultra-wide because it introduces distinct perspective distortion (converging verticals and volume deformation) that requires specific ultra-wide composition techniques.
Just because extreme 11mm full-frame lenses exist today doesn't change textbook optical definitions.

And it's only for APS-C (smaller) sensors. Typically found in budget cameras.
Lacks any form of image stabilization in the lens, so hope your (old!) camera has it...!
