650D, 18-35 IS STM, 40/2.8 STM (pancack).

Bearing in mind it's a Rebel and not XXD or XD I think they did a fine job.

When considering the overall size of lens and camera I'm struggling to see the allure of pancake design, especially with the existence of the significantly faster 35/2 and 50/1.8. Maybe the STM will find lovers in the video realm but for stills?
BTW, based on what is currently known, does anybody understands how STM is better than Ring-USM?
