Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens + Deluxe Accessory Kit

Customer Review: This lens is so much fun!
Summary: 5 Stars

I am not a professional photographer by any stretch of the imagination, but I do like using this lens. It allows me to get nice close-up photos of my kids playing in the backyard without interrupting their play. I've also used it for taking portraits for my church's directory- so far everyone has been pleased.

I have had trouble with focusing when using this lens indoors (example is my daughter's summer camp concert), but overall I am very pleased.

I did appreciate all the little "extras" this particular vendor provided- especially the lens case.

Description of Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens + Deluxe Accessory Kit

Incorporating Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology, this Canon 55-250mm telephoto zoom lens captures long distance, low-light shots far better than many comparable lenses, helping you photograph the far-off action of athletes or zoom in for an intimate portrait with a blurred background. The high-zoom-ratio lens is equivalent to a focal length of 88-400mm in the 35mm format (when used on Canon EOS cameras compatible with EF-S lenses). More significantly, the image stabilizer effect creates an equivalent shutter speed of roughly four stops faster than the same size lens without an image stabilizer. In other words, if the slowest shutter speed you can hold a 250mm lens steadily is normally 1/250th of a second, this Canon lens will let you hand-hold shutter speeds as slow as 1/15th of a second. The lens also boasts a UD-glass lens element to correct chromatic aberration to create excellent image quality throughout the zoom range. Delivering an excellent performance at an affordable price for all photographers, the 55-250mm lens carries a one-year warranty. ++PLUS++ DELUXE ACCESSORY KIT: 3 pc Filter Kit: Includes: UV filter, Polarizing filter, Fluorescent correction filter & Filter case - Protective Lens Pouch with Drawstring Closure - Lens Pen Cleaning Tool - Elastic Front Lens Cap Leash (cap keeper) - Advanced Micro Fiber Cleaning Cloth.
