Disapointed
The information stated that if used with an eos cannon the zoom would be 85 t0 400mm and it is not I should have gottin the 75 to 350 for a $150.00 half the price and better zoom.

Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM
I purchased this used on Ebay for 138.00. I have used the ISII version of this lens. While I was impressed with that lens I must say this one is even sharper. I purchased this STM model to complement the kit 18-55stm that came with my SL1.
Pros:
- sharp
- silent and built solid
Cons:
- Really nothing so far
