I would rather get real acquainted with my camera a lot more, before I go out and purchase an expensive lens. That way later I would know what I want in a better lens, and I will truly see the difference, between the two. It really compliments the 18-55mm kit lens that came with my XSi. I am sure that I would probably need more reach, but that would have to come later....

It is not going to rival the higher end L class lenses, but is also not going to be over [$]as well.For this price, you get a sturdy, fairly sharp lense, that can perform excellently in good light. You do really have to look deep at pictures to tell the difference between this and the[$]more expensive 70-300mm IS lens. This lens is the perfect companion to the 18-55 kit and will give you great shots, time and time again. Buy it, and a good size flash unit for the same price as just the 70-300mm lens. Use it and you will be happy.... Tue, 30 Sep 2008 02:15:00 GMT http://www.mysears.com/Canon-Telephoto-Zoom-Lens-55-250mm-f-4-5-6-IS-review-fef90 sears-feed 5
