Aug 20, 2014 14:57 | #1 Canon's having a one-day deal on the 70D EF-S 18-55mm IS STM Lens Kit Refurbished - for $836.36. Having been contemplating a new camera for some time to replace my T2i - this seemed like too good a deal to pass up.

Aug 20, 2014 15:03 | #3 Congratulations. Wish I was right there with you but I need a house to sell before I can spend anymore on photography. They must have had a glut of 18-55's as it was about $0.50 more to get it rather than just the 70D body only. I come here for your expert opinion. Please do not hesitate to critique or edit.

You will appreciate the increase in build quality and the rear quick control wheel on the 70D, and you'll definitely enjoy the new 18-55 STM lens over the old kit lens. It's actually quite eerie how quiet and quickly the 18-55 stm (and the 55-250 stm) focus compared to the older IS and IS II versions. Just a soul with a camera
