Reviewed this lense's other reviews around various sites. I was fortunate to try a friends Canon EF70mm-300mm which is excellent, but could not afford the cost, so eventually went for the Canon EF55mm-250mm f4-f5.6 IS II. I have a canon Eos 1100D, with standard 18mm-55mm zoom lense and after much consideration decided the Canon EF 55mm-250mm zoom as the perfect partner my other lense. I wanted a bigger focal range for 5k Parkrun event, sports photograpy I do. After trying my friends lense I knew I was selecting the right focal length, but what was the optical quality going to be like as a result? The lense quality is incredible for the money. I'm on a tight budget for such accessories, and the comments I have received about my images with this lense are impressive. It's pin sharp, easily as good as the standard 18mm-55mm, and its every bit as fast also. The lense has an f4 aperure at the 55mm end (compared to f5.6 aperture on the standard lense at 55mm focal length setting) and f5.6 at 250mm, a perfect balanced match with no loss of speed or light. Its a lightweight lense compared to the 70mm-300mm I tried, so thats an advantage for hand held shots. Teamed up with the Canon 1100D body it has a lovely balance and its comfortable to use, giving excellent results when matched up with the Canon ET60 lense hood and a good monopod for sports my shots. So what if its a plastic mount, it's the optical/picture quality that you want a lense to provide. I would not hesitate to recommend this lense as an addition to the standard box kit 18mm-55mm. It's a no brainer, and a bargin for around £150!
