The 18-55mm IS STM looks also a bit outdated when compared to other kit kens offering.
There will be more native EOS M lenses soon, a recent rumor suggests. The announcement of the EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM, together with the EF 35mm f/1.4L II (leaked yesterday) and the Rebel SL2 is expected in the next days, so stay tuned on Canon Watch to not miss anything.
