Dustin Abbott has just posted a new review of Canon EF-S 24mm F2.8 STM lens at the Canonrumors.com. This pancake is a fast and versatile lens with an effective focal length of 38.4mm, or very similar to the angle of view of the 40mm STM on a full frame camera at the low price of only $149.

Verdict by Dustin “Extremely compact size, a fairly large maximum aperture of f/2.8, great sharpness at all aperture values, fast focus, and a great, highly useful maximum magnification value of .27x. The bokeh is pretty nice (if a bit busy in some situations), distortion and chromatic aberrations fairly well controlled, and even the flare resistance is quite good. .. And at $149 in the US, the highly reasonable price removes the only barrier that might cause me to hesitate to recommend the lens. ..The field of view of this lens is on the wider end of “normal”, which means that it is an extremely versatile focal length that functions well as a general purpose lens. This is the kind of lens that Canon needs to produce more of…”
