This telephoto zoom lens is designed with Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology while retaining compactness and lightness, in response to demands of photographers. 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), and the image stabilizer effect 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. This new EF-S telephoto lens with great features delivers excellent performance at an affordable price for all photographers.

I really needed this lens, because I didn't want to get a really super expensive zoom lens! The features are great, not the highest quality, but you will pay a lot more for that!

The image captured is pretty sharp. I don't have a L lens so I can't compare to 70-200, however, I don't use this long range very often, and 55-250 is good enough for me.

I wish I had gotten a stronger lens. I like to get in close and this does not go very far.

I get excellent pictures and it is easy to use. It would be nice if the F numbers were smaller but I guess it would cost more then. I also have a 75-300 IS lens and it is very heavy so this is nice for hiking.

I was looking for a perfect zoom lens for my Canon Rebel T1i (500d) that would not break the bank. After readings tons of reviews and comparing/contrasting lenses, I finally decided to get this one! When I tried it out the first time, I was pleased- more pleased than I expected. Even on a cloudy day, the quality was still there! These are a few positives and negatives about this lens:
Positives:
*Good quality, especially on a sunny day!
*Great zoom!
*Quick to put on camera body and start taking photos
*Easy to zoom (almost too easy!)
*Has manual/auto focus
*Not too big or too small
*Has image stabilization
Negatives:
*some grain during cloudy days when you have to bump up the ISO
*Some vignetting on full zoom
*not a fast lens (which means that the F-Stop number is not low enough, which does not allow lots of light in)
*NOT useful (quality-wise) indoors or night time photos
*Sometimes I have to switch between my kit lens and this lens because it starts at 50mm (and I need a wider lens)
*use of plastic to make this lens
It many seem like there are more negatives, but those are just the broad positives. For the money, this lens is perfect. I am very satisfied with it, and glad I bought this one. Like many people, I need a zoom lens to get the job done, not to be PERFECT in every way. What lens is?
If you need a zoom lens, buy this one!
