Good bag for the largest compacts like Lumix TZ100
I needed a camera bag suitable for my TZ100 and spare, memory, batteries, cleaning cloth, and USB cable. This was the only bag I that met my criteria at cheap price. It is a bit big and the padding is good. The accessory pocket is a good size too, and secure. I tried another brand, but the it had a flap secured by Velcro over both the accessory and camera compartment, which has a zip opening. Contents can fall out. This big is far better and has no such issues. Another good thing about this bag is the nylon interior and not the soft felt interior. The double zip camera compartment opens very wide, giving fast access to the camera. I am not keen on the plastic strap hooks, so I hope they are durable.
Recommended if you want a cheap bag.

A great all round STM lens at a bargain price.
5 of 5 found this helpful This lens is currently the most flexible zoom within the Canon STM range. I got it for the convenience of not having to carry my other lenses, not changing lenses at a critical time (also when windy and dusty), therefore always ready to take photos and videos.
The lens auto focus is silent and fast. Videos can be shot without fear of motor noise heard on the sound track.
The focus is fully electronic with no mechanic connection between the focus ring and the mechanism. The manual focus ring only works when the camera is turned on, and the lens set to manual.
The lens has full time manual focus, so even in autofocus mode, manual override can be used with the shutter button half pressed.
The lens has a zoom lock, but the lens is a bit stiff and detected no lens creep. I have another Canon lens (55-250mm non-STM) with a similar feel and it does not have a zoom lock switch.
There is an earlier Canon 18-135mm lens that is not STM! That means does not have silent autofocus, no full time manual focus, only 6 blade aperture as opposed to 7 blade on the STM version. The non-STM version autofocus is slower and hunts more. The STM version has some minor performance upgrade and the lens can focus nearer than before, compared to the non-STM version.
There are lots of lens reviews and comparisons on the web.
Beware of sellers showing pictures of the wrong lens (STM) when they are selling the older non-STM version. If the price is right and you don't mind which version, then okay. Just check before you buy!
It is similar, larger and heavier than the normal 18-55mm STM kit lens. The 18-55mm kit lens can focus closer than the 18-135mm. The 18-55mm weighs half the amount of the 18-135mm and it is noticeable. You have to balance the convenience of carrying that one lens over carrying second lens.
The lens was a bargain and should have bought it as a kit, but forgot about it at the time. I bought the Canon EOS 700D with double battery, but even this purchase makes the overall price practically the same. You don't get extra battery with the 18-135 kit.
A good all round lens for general photography with STM.

Works very well with practice.
