Canon Rebel XTi DSLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens (OLD MODEL)

today I was feeling a little curious and I have some spare time this summer so I thought I'd run my kit lens through my lens review tests it's helpful for photographer to have a decent camera lens to work with but the best photographers can use almost anything to get good pictures there's no denying that the Canon kit lenses have improved enormously over the years and this version certainly represent great value for money it's small light cheap and image stabilized I've got the slightly newer to version of the lens with the all-black barrel which I think looks much cooler than a previous versions overall the land looks nice enough but it's a little plasticy and the barrel is wobbly the zoom rings on these lenses always start out nice and smooth but soon they begin to get jerky as you can see here it's only really a problem if you're trying to get a nice smooth zoom action while shooting
