    New Kit Lens? [CR2]

    From the world of wacky
    Received an email stating Canon would be adding another kit lens to the Rebel kits.

    It would look something like: EF-S 18-120 f/3.5-5.6 IS

    I don't think a kit lens between the 18-55 and 18-200 would be such a bad idea.

    Big grain of salt on this one and add some pepper.

      I would not mind in-body stabilization despite the fact that I have spent a lot of money on 70-200 2.8 IS and will soon buy another IS zoom, I also have a few primes that I like (including my favourite 85mm 1.8) and I’d love to have some kind of IS for them, even 1-, 2-stop one. Face it, with 3-stop IS for 70-200 I can shoot 80mm at 1/25s easily, on the other hand with my 85mm prime I have to shoot at 1/100 or so (maybe a tad slower) to be sure of a sharp picture and a lot of aperture advantage that 85mm 1.8 had over 70-200 2.8 gets lost in the process.

      2-stop IS system in the new 500D or whatever will come next (60D or whatever) would make me upgrade my “ancient” 400D, I could not care less about a movie mode or some fancy articulated screens.

      It will be an EFS18-85 USM with full metal mounts 17-55 discontinued, same price point

      Both Pentax and Olympus sell kit lenses that are similarly priced without rotating front elements.
