Review on Canon EOS 600D Kit EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II, black by Mateusz Grzesiak  (M ᠌

I didn't like the lenses in the KIT kits. When we examined two different camera options, one for the European market and one for the American market, we found that neither version of the kit satisfied our needs. It is common sense that skipping the KIT is the preferable option. The "carcass" itself can be used, but the fact that different places have drastically differing levels of construction quality is extremely irritating. The American version has a decent build quality, which is a benefit (even the Taiwanese variant has decent build quality). -Materials of an excellent grade. -The simplicity of configuring settings. -Outstanding work done on the "carcass" (when using the universal lens that was selected) while in the manual settings option. Note: It would appear that you need to create a separate "carcass" and use the usual optics option. Having these drawbacks: -The European version has a poor overall construction quality. -A variety of enlightenment methods utilizing common optics to accommodate a wide variety of regional configurations. -Lenses for the KIT with a poor quality (in all variants). - An unexpected affinity for light for a matrix of this size and composition. -A significant quantity of background noise during shooting (in the version for the US market). -Photographs taken with a KIT lens have a lackluster clarity and contrast (in all delivery options). -The mechanism through which KIT lenses' image stabilization systems work is incomprehensible (the feeling is that it affects focusing, it is better to take optics without it). - The hefty weight of the camera.
