Pros:Price, sharpness on almost any focal range, IS
Cons:Maf sometimes slow and hesitant
Opinion:I bought this lens after 4 years of photographing, just to cover the hole I had left after selling a 70-300 for a 400mm. I was thinking of buying it (naturally used) just for those few cases where I found some animal too close to using the 400mm, but I am very amused to use it even in the city or some landscape. The sharpness is really good and the chromatic yield is satisfactory. For what it costs, I think you can not really ask for more. With little light, the mafia is not performing well, but I mean, we're talking about a used item that's less than $ 200, so it's more than good. Recommended to everyone!
Pros:zoom range, sharpness, the presence of the SI
Cons:construction materials
Opinion:I could define a small sample of sharpness, and I use the word 'small' is no coincidence. Had years ago with my old 600D and 'been a loyal copagno small dimensions which surprised me for the absolute clarity of files that could give me. I would recommend it highly to anyone who wants to cheaply get closer to the world of paintings. It 'been a goal that has met me at the time and today, when dealing with the files of the time, I'm always pleasantly surprised at the detail of the photo! Recommended!
Cons:maf slow, bayonet plastic, hood not available, sharpness than 200mm
Opinion:was the second lens in my kit APSC and, after a slow change, the last lens APSC remained in my corredo.rnsin immediately amazed me for clarity even at room temperature, but sharpness is lost over the 200mm.rnla maf it is good with light and when using cross-type points, but goes to hell in the dark and if you do not use points of maf cross: the lens begins to focus when focus agganciare.rnpeccato without the lens hood is not supplied, but you know , canon them "offers" only to series L.rnrnper the rest this is a lens to buy absolutely, perhaps in STM version, because even if it is little used, leave you amazed at the quality of the file that regala.rn
Opinion:The 55-250 IS II I bought it originally for my EOS 30D, is really a good lens for those who are beginners and want to get as close as possible to the subject. Of 30D and 60D has a good sharpness, I ran a series of shots of insects also getting good results (the lens of closing one or two stops well enough). A 250mm loses a bit 'of sharpness but I find it always acceptable yield. The lens has really given me great satisfaction, even if sometimes the autofocus is slow in some cases but on the opposite stabilizer works really well, to 250mm are made of the excellent handheld shooting hassle free! The construction is made of plastic, of course for 160 € spent you could not ask for more, maybe at least the bayonet metal.
Pros:light, crisp, stabilization, excellent quality / price ratio
Cons:front lens rotation, over 200 quality, af slow and sometimes insecure
Opinion:I got it used and immediately I was amazed by the lightness and the quality of the images. Cala a hair over 200mm wide open but closing recovers a bit '. I'm no expert but it seems to me that its better to be between 70 and 150 mm. I was hesitant to buy it and now I think all in all I could also take it before. Great start by spending an amount contained with results more than good.
