419JxCkHgpL. SL75 Canon EF S 55 250mm f 4 0 5 6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras

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. Filter Size – 58mm Max. Diameter – x Length 2.8 in. x 4.3 in./70 x 108mm (maximum lens length) Weight – 13.8 oz./390g Canon 1 year limited warranty

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Another good addition to my Canon lens collection.
I have used Canon products exclusively since my first purchase in 1960, with countless Canon cameras since my first Canon FT SLR. I did not think that a zoom lens in this price range could be as good as this 55-250 mm is proving to be. I would certainly recommend this lens to any Canon user who wishes to try this zoom range and is budget minded. After doing much research concerning lens tests, etc, before my purchase, I must say that it is exceeding my expectations already.

2 Stars unlucky user experience
I bought this lense because I’ve already got the 18-55mm lense when I bought my CANON 450D. When I just got this new lens, I was very excited, but after I put it on, and did some test shots, I was confused. whenever I pressed down the shutter, from the view finder, I first saw a little shake of the lens, then heard the click sound. Then, I tried it a couple of more times, the same thing happened. Then, I took it off and re-installed it again. I thought maybe something didn’t hook up correctly. Unfortunately, still had that little shake when I pressed the shutter. At last, I had to return it to seller. Maybe I’m the only unlucky person? But now, I’m looking for some other lens.

4 Stars Great lens period – especially for the money
I have been using the 55-250 for about 90 days. I didn’t purchase it from Amazon although I wish I had. I could have saved 50 bucks. At the time I got the lens, I didn’t fully understand the importance of “fast lenses” this lens does not qualify as a “fast lens” however, for the money…I consider this my best buy. I have the 18-55, 50mm 1.8, and the 100mm macro….all Canon. The 100mm macro is my favorite, but the 55-250 is right behind it and much more versatile. The range and the IS “image stabilization” are the main good points of the lens. I love the fact you can go form 55-250 as the name of the lens suggests. If I had more money, I would buy a 2.8 lens…something like a 70-200 2.8 IS. However, for a quarter the price, this lens has much to offer. You will need to count on using it outside or in good light. When fully zoomed in to 250mm it’s a little sketchy, but I love the lens and would buy it again today. Don’t even think about getting a non IS lens that has more range but no IS! It’s well worth it. If this lens was a 4.0 steady throughout the range, it would be a great lens. As it is…..it’s nearly great. You just have to watch the lighting. Highly recommended especially for beginners or people on a budget. You will love it!

4 Stars Worked as expected
This lens worked as I expected it too. It is a good product for the money. It does exactly as it is supposed to.

4 Stars quick delivery, hans’t tried out yet
Quick delivery, still havn’t received the camera that was in the same order, therefore hasn’t had a chance to try it out.

5 Stars Super Value Quality Lens
I use this lens to shoot practically everything with my Canon 7D, especially sports. It keeps up with the action and the auto-focus and image stabilization are outstanding. The zoom is perfect for baseball, fastpitch softball and soccer. Given the features, quality performance and image quality for under $250, you will not be disappointed. An exceptional value.

2 Stars defective
Bought as new from Amazon, but received a defective one.

Right after open the box, I found:

There are eight dark dust spots sticking to inside glasses of the lens;

There is one scratch on the surface of glass in the rear end of the lens.

Immediately returned it.

Recently I received a couple of defective or used electronic items from Amazon for new items including the almighty Canon T2i.

I am wondering whether it is because of bad warehouse management, logistics or because I selected super saver shipping and got punished ?

Updates:

———————–

Amazon is in processing to give me a full refund.

Amazon customer service remains ranking at the highest level.

However, I decided to give marketplace a try.

I ordered this lens from Gigabargin at slightly higher price when considering the 3% discount for Amazon item.

Will Updating soon.

5 Stars Like the lens!
I do not have experience with the faster (and more expensive) top-grade lenses, but this one does the job just right. For the price, this lens is great. I shoot mainly outdoors for photos I want to display on my walls or for family, so this lens is just right for my photography needs.

5 Stars Canon 55-250 lens
Nice lens, can’t beat the price from Amazon. I would recomend this lens to anyone with a Cannon SLR. A+

4 Stars Great value zoom lens with IS
this lens is a great deal! i’m an amateur photographer, so on a budget. this has the range i need, has IS so I don’t have to lug around a tripod to use. it’s light weight and produces great, sharp photos. i noticed the dc motor is a bit loud, but it’s substantially less expensive than the usm model. i already know this will be one of my favorite lenses.

    4 Stars Too many batteries
    This camera is a great photographic equipment, however if you don’t buy rechargable batteries you will become a polluter,it uses too many batteries and useful life of regular batteries is short, therefore you will have to keep buying more batteries everytime…this is not a environmentally friendly camera. I should have been more careful at the moment of selecting this camera.

    5 Stars Nice Camera
    I’m not a prefessional photographer. I’m happy to have this camera. Really nice one icon smile Nikon Coolpix L110 12 MP Digital Camera with 15x Optical Vibration Reduction VR Zoom and 3 0 Inch LCD Black

    5 Stars well satisfied
    I was looking for a camera that would produce clear detailed closeups and one that would zoom in for a distant picture also. I found both with this camera. I am well satisfied that the camera did as advertised and I have enjoyed taking closeups of my flower garden.

    5 Stars So far so GREAT!
    My husband recently bought the Nikon CoolPix L110 for me from Amazon and I absolutely LOVE it! I have always had Nikons–over 25 years worth from a manual to an SLR to digital to this one!–and once again I can take pictures straight out of the box. It feels good in your hand, the controls are so easy and the photos are crystal clear. I have only had it for short while, so I have not tried out the video but I didn’t buy the camera for video capabilities so I may not ever use it! I have yet to read the book but I will so I can take some creative shots.

    I broke the LCD screen on my Nikon CoolPix L15 (don’t ever put them in your purse without a case!) so I initially thought I’d get another one like it until I saw the L110. The 15x zoom is absolutely wonderful, esp for taking wildlife shots, which is what I was lacking with the L15′s 3x zoom.

    I wanted a Nikon L-series camera because it uses regular AA batteries (comes with 4 Energizer Lithiums!) which you can find anywhere, esp on vacation.

    The camera strap and lens cap strap that come with it are great–the lens cap strap is threaded with the camera strap so you cannot lose it, which is very nice, yet it is out of the way.

    I’ve taken quite a few macro shots both on the “upclose” setting and on the standard “portrait” setting and both work beautifully.

    The absolute ONLY thing I’d change on the camera is to color in that glowing orange dot for the record button–it makes you think the camera is “on”.

    So far I haven’t had any blurry pictures issues like some of the reviews here….

    4 Stars Great Camera for an “Average” User
    I am not an SLR guy. But this Camera is great for the “Above Average” Users. This is far better than a point and shoot camera. The 15X zoom works great and 12.1 MP captures very minute details even at highest zoom. I have tried taking the pictures in all types of lights and it works well. I am very happy with this camera. An easy to use camera with 15X zoom, 12.1 MP resolution and less than $250… What else can I ask ???

    However at full zoom, I have to take the pictures very carefully. Even a little bit of shake of hands at full zoom spoils the pictures.

    Also the picture turns a little grainy at full zoom. Not so bad though.

    However I must admit that the “Automatic Mode” captures the best pictures in all lights and all modes. I hardly need to use the manual settings. “Automatic Mode” does it for me most of the time.
