Considering the kit with 18-55 costs 75 euro more than the body only and the 28-105 costs about 250 euro's, u pay 175 euro more in total. For this u get: more quiet zoom, faster zoom, more usefull zoom-range. A good all round lens IMO.

The 18-55 is ok, but just that. And it costs money.... Money it's not worth IMO.
