Suitable for distant subject matter, the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens Reviewis an 88-400mm-equivalent zoom for Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens ReviewAPS-C DSLRs. This lens's long reach is enhanced by the inclusion of an Ultra-Low Dispersion element, which helps to greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations for greater clarity and color accuracy throughout the zoom range. A Super Spectra coating is also featured, and minimizes flare and ghosting in order to produce greater contrast when working in bright lighting conditions. Benefitting both photo and video applications, an STM stepping AF motor is used to realize quick and near-silent autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override. Additionally, a four-stop-effective Image Stabilizer system is also featured and minimizes the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting.

Telephoto zoom is designed for APS-C-format Canon EF-S-mount DSLRs and provides an 88-400mm equivalent focal length range.

One Ultra-Low Dispersion glass element noticeably reduces color fringing and chromatic aberrations for high clarity and color fidelity.

Super Spectra coating has been applied to individual elements to minimize ghosting and flare for greater contrast and color neutrality when working in strong lighting conditions.

An Optical Image Stabilizer helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to 3.5 stops to better enable working in low-light conditions and with slower shutter speeds.

Enhanced lens coatings minimize flare and ghosting in order to produce true colors with maintained contrast.

An STM stepping AF motor realizes smooth, near-silent autofocus that is complemented by a rear focus system, advanced AF algorithms, and a high-speed CPU for fast AF performance. Additionally, full-time manual focus override is also available.

Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. i have 80d. can use it?

A: Yes this lens is fully compatible with the Canon EOS 80D.

Q: 2. Can this lens be used in the 5D Mark III?

A: No. EF-S lenses are designed for use with APS-C sized sensor and would not be compatible with a Full Frame size sensor camera like the 5D Mark III.

Q: 3. Will a 1.4 telextender work with this lens?

A: Sorry, no. Telextenders work best with extreme (expensive) telephoto primes with fast f/2.8 apertures. They cannot work with consumer lenses like this with an effective f/11 stop. If you try to mount this, the glass elements most likely will hit and damage each other. Even if you succeeded in mounting, the lens would be so dark, you could not focus and the image quality, sharpness wise, would be very poor.

Q: 4. Is this compatible with an EF to RF lens adapter?

A: Yes, the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens can be used on a Canon R series camera using the Canon EF to RF adapter. Please be aware that the 55-205mm lens is a crop sensor lens. It would be fully compatible when adapted to a crop sensor camera such as the R7, R10, R50 or R100. When adapted to a full frame Canon R camera, the resolution would be lowered and the camera will crop the image by 1.6x.

Q: 5. Will the full time manual focus control work with the t3i body?

A: Yes; as full-time manual focus is a feature of the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens, and the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens is fully compatible with the Canon EOS Digital Rebel T3i DSLR camera, it would work for your your needs.

Q: 6. Is compatible for 6d mari ii

A: Unfortunately, the Canon EF-S 55-250 f/4-5.6 IS STM is not compatible with the Canon 6d Mk II. The Canon 6d Mk II does not accept EF-S mount lenses, and does not work well with crop-sensor lenses even in the EF-mount.

Q: 7. will this len fit on rebel t5i?

A: Yes, it will fit the T5i.It will give you a range between 88mm-400mm focal length, due to the T5i's x 1.6 crop factor.Overall I find this lens to be extremely good with it's sharpness, color and speed of focusing.If you do video with it, it is virtually silent too.Highly recommended !!
