Cannon Kit Lense
This may not be the right forum for this thread but bare with me. I recently bought a Cannon rebel xti digital camera from amazon.com body only. I am now looking for the lens that comes in the kit. I think its a 18-75 mm but i could be wrong. I stopped by a wolf camera and they don't sell them separately but they did say that people buy lots of those bodies and may have some extra lenses sitting around that they may want to sell. Now to finish my very long story, I want to buy one of those lenses. Do any of you, perchance, have some sitting around they wouldn't mind parting with.

Re: Cannon Kit Lense
Welcome to the site. Do you mean the Canon EF-s 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6? I have never hear of an 18-75mm kit lens, but that doesn't mean it isn't out there. Check ebay. I'm sure you will find lots of them there.

Honestly... I wouldn't bother with the 18-55mm EFS kit lens, its a cheap peace of junk. Go for a 28-135mm IS if you want a good starter walk around lens. Its about $400, but its MUCH better than that 18-55mm.

Re: Cannon Kit Lense
The kit lenses is actually pretty good, worth more than the < $100 it costs. I would not discard this lens or not choose to use it because of some bad comments.
The suggestion of getting a Canon 28-135 IS is excellent. I use this as my walking around lens as well and is one of the best consumer-grade Canon lenses. There should be some on the used market too. Get the IS, it makes a world of difference.
