REVIEW: Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens Review
This telephoto zoom lens provides an angle of view equivalent to an 88-400mm used on a 35mm camera. This version is an update to the previous Canon 55-250mm IS II lens, adding Canon's new stepping motor technology, which promises smoother, quieter autofocus performance, which is especially suited to...

very value for money telephoto lens. not to good for candid in wedding, because not fast enough, unless picture noise is not a big deal, we can use high ISO. very good match for 18-55is kit. image quality is as the price
Pros:
- very light, value for money
- the IS is good enough
- the autofocus fast enough
Cons:
- not to sharp, and chromatic aberation is visible at 100% croping (but i am not pixel peeper)
- not to fast
- build quality is so so
- but better than 18-55is

Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Lightweight

Lens Test: Canon 55-250mm f/4-5.6 EF-S IS
An 88-400mm equivalent, this is Canon's longest EF-S (digital only) zoom, and roughly the low-cost digital alternative to its 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L full-frame "white" image-stabilized zoom that's so hot with pros.

The EF-S 55-250IS is a relatively new lens designed to supplement the EF-S 18-55IS "Kit Lens" for the Digital Rebel line of DSLRs. Like the EF-S 18-55/3.5-5.6 IS, the 55-250/4-5.6 IS uses Canon's new low cost IS system.

Cannon Telephoto Lens 55 -250 IS
Lens works great, I already had a 18 - 55 mm, this is a good companion. Because I have to change lens quite often, I considered other options that covered the 18 to 300 mm range, but they were to expensive.
Pros:
- Great Lens
Cons:
- None

Seems to be a pretty awesome lens so far.
I'm still learning how to fully utilize this lens which came as part of a package deal with the Canon EOS Rebel T3i that I purchased. It seems to be a great little lens for taking quality distance shots. I expect to appreciate it even more as I learn to use it to it's full capacity.
Pros:
- Still learning how to use this
- but I have been impressed with the photos I've been able to take while experimenting
Cons:
- No complaints
