I'm buying 70D. Should I get the STM lenses, too?

If you are not happy with the lenses, you can sell them off, and still have a good deal on the 70D

I recently bought 55-250 STM for when I want to go light. I can say I am impressed with it, as yogestee is with his 18-135 STM... as a general kit lens.

If your not happy with the 18-135 STM, you can contact me as a possible buyer...
BTW.. The 18-55 STM, makes for very nice Macro work

Both shot with the 55-250

I don't get the great pocket lens thing. Say you are the OP, it's not like you can just stick your 18-135, 15-85 or 18-270 in your front pocket while you use the pancake. So you either you carry a larger bag or lens pouch or that pancake just becomes an unusable lens taking up space in your pocket.

You're right. The other lens will not fit in my pocket. I carry my camera and lenses in a camera bag or a backpack. The 40mm takes up very little room.

Great colors in those shots! I hope I don't have to take you up on your offer, but will keep you in mind.
