Product Description
Bring your photographic subjects closer with this canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS Image Stabilizer Telephoto Zoom Lens. It is designed with canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology and is compact and light. This 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). The image stabilizer effect is equivalent to a shutter speed about 4 stops faster than the same size lens without Image Stabilizer. In other words, if the slowest shutter speed you could formerly hold a 250mm lens steadily was 1/250th of a second, with canon's 4-stop stabilization correction, you could hand-hold at shutter speeds as slow as 1/15th of a second. It also uses a UD-glass lens element to correct chromatic aberration for excellent image quality throughout the zoom range.

I bought this lens mainly because of price. It was the longest lens with AF and IS I could get without busting my budget as I bought the Rebel XSI at the same time. I took it to a stock car race and brought back some GREAT pictures. I still wish I had a little more lens but I was delighted with how well the lens zoomed in and focused. Our seats were near the top of the stands and the lens made it possible to read the patches on the driver's uniforms on pit road. I also took some city shots and the lens performed well. I took great steady shots without the need of a tripod. If you need a good versitile lens that doesn't break the bank, I recommend this one without reservation.
I recently purchased a Canon EOS Rebel 10.1mp. I tried to use the lens that came with the camera at a Show Choir Event and it didn't get me close enough. With this Zoom, it's more than adequate. I could zoom right in on faces or zoom out and get the whole choir. It was well workth the money I spent!
Great Price for a nice lens. I am an amateur photographer, decent shots taken with this on my Digital Rebel XSi.
I am a amateur photographer who wanted something that would take good pictures of my daughter and her friends when out and about. I love the quality of the pictures I have taken with this lens. It focuses fast and has taken very good pictures even when the kids where running towards me. I am using this lens with a Canon XTi.
Used this as my primary lens on last vacation and it worked great. I doubt you could find a better tele for the price. IS is also very good. The lens is a bit slow but for under $300, I can live with it.
This lense (EFS 55-250 IS) a very good lense for the price. The optics are good for an amateur/enthusiast like me. The buiild is light-weight plastic. The telephoto has a nice smooth action. Compared to my FD Canon lenses it feels less substantial and more delicate and I find myself being much more careful with it. When I started using the lense out of the box the IS sounded like it was quietly grinding coffee. I could also see my image jump in the view finder quite regularly. The noise and image anomaly has quieted down within a few days of use (or maybe I just got used to it). Some claim this noise is normal for this lense. Nonetheless, if you have a XS or XSi budget this is the telephoto for you.
I got this lens along with my XSI while Canon had a $[...] instant rebate, so this lens really only cost me a little over a hundred bucks. It is definitely worth the $[...] that Amazon normally charges for it. If you are a casual photographer like me and can not shell out thousands of dollars on lenses, this is a must have.
It may not be the most well built lens in the canon line, but it feels much more solid than the kit lens. I had the chance to check out the 70-300 IS USM in Circuit City not too long ago and I felt like the manual focus was a little sloppy and the body itself felt a little light for the size. The image quality might be a shade better and the USM might be faster, but after holding the lens, I was glad I didn't shell out the extra $[...].
I have been able to take some wonderfully crisp indoor shots with this lens using my tripod and shutter release. The weather has been a little chilly and I have not felt like doing much outdoor shooting, so I can not speak to the effectiveness of IS for hand held shots.
If you are a novice and looking for a good starter zoom lens, this is it. I love this lens and am completely satisfied for now. When I decide that I can justify spending a thousand dollars on the 300 F4L, I may stop loving this lens, but for now this lens has been great.
Nice lens. Bright enough. Very quite & very accurate. Fast autofocus Bottom line, excellent partner for my XSI. Im happy
I'm very pleased with these lens. Easy attaching onto the Xsi, with a nice click sound as it locks in place. The autofocus is fast, and it doesn't seem overly heavy on the camera, for the casual use I do.
Albeit, I plan to have the Xsi grow on me, this works great on auto mode when I didn't want to fumble around with the Manual settings.
It doesn't feel cheap in the hands but more of a "light weight strong plastic" Also needed if you wanted decent zoom on top of the basic lens.
I was lucky enough to get this as a kit lens along with the 18-55mm IS lens though Costco (DG200 Canon camera bag, Rebel XSi, 18-55 IS, 55-250 IS, 2gb card, 50 free prints all for [...]...deal was short lived though and now its [...]). In any case, if you are looking for a good entry level zoom lens and are scared away by the prices of most lenses, consider this one.
I've gotten some shots with great color depth and good 'punchiness' with this camera but usually only when the lighting is optimal. The colors can seem just a bit flat in less favorable light - but when you consider that this is a [...] zoom lens the performance is still way above what you might expect at that price. I've not had any noise issues with the IS, but the AF is a little noisy (but its not a USM lens, so that's part of life).
If you check out the user pics on the XSi image gallery, the bald eagle shots I posted there were taken with this lens from about 1000 feet away on a cloudy day. To be able to capture the detail I did with a [...] zoom lens is a good thing. 4 out of 5 stars for the color issue I mentioned.
This is the perfect zoom lens for the casual user who doesn't plan on ever dropping the real big bucks for an L-class lens but wants something that will let them get some good shots at a distance at their kids sporting events, out on hikes, etc. For [...] this lens rounds out a simple little canon kit very well (aside from the 18-55mm kit lens, the bargain price lenses I usually recommend to folks who want a decent assortment of them is the 50mm f 1.8 prime lens for [...] and this one).
My next lens purchase is going to be the canon 100-400mm IS L-USM lens...when I can afford it. :)
