Digital camera reviews of Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras

Digital camera Review: Canon 55-250 lens
Summary: 5 Stars

Nice lens, can't beat the price from Amazon. I would recomend this lens to anyone with a Cannon SLR. A+

Digital camera Review: Canon 55-250mm IS lens
Summary: 4 Stars

I get excellent pictures and it is easy to use. It would be nice if the F numbers were smaller but I guess it would cost more then. I also have a 75-300 IS lens and it is very heavy so this is nice for hiking.

Digital camera Review: Canon 55-250mm Lens
Summary: 5 Stars

Great all around lens, no problems on my Ti2, excellent very, very quick autofocus. A good workhorse lens for general use. Taking quick and detailed photos of anything was easily accomplished. I would recommend this lens for general use. Photos were crisp in auto focus from 55-250mm. IS works great well worth it.

I wish I had gotten a stronger lens. I like to get in close and this does not go very far.

Digital camera Review: Canon EF-S 55 - 250mm lens
Summary: 4 Stars

After ordering the Canon EF-S 55 - 250mm from Amazon, I was informed I would get the lens via Ace Photo Digital of Brooklyn, NY. After waiting almost two weeks, received the lens. To me it was light, but the focus/zoom felt right. Problem was: it didn't fit my 5D because it was an APS-C lens! Duh!. It fit my EOS Rebel T1i, which, since I already had a lens of 28-135 on it, this lens didn't help me. I took a couple of exposures on the Rebel to look at the quality in Photoshop. (Pretty good, I thought.) I reboxed the lens in reverse order and sent it back on 3-day UPS ($28).

When they received it, I got dinged a 10% re-stocking fee (another $30). I ended up ordering a Tamaron 70-300 through Amazon and got it in a few days. It is a bit heavier, but better glass. It was also $100 cheaper that Ace Photo's cost!!
