Everyone writes, there is no wide angle, but it’s like there shouldn’t be in fact. I bought it by accident, because I was driving completely behind another one, but it wasn’t there, and the analogue was a little expensive. Honestly, I didn’t regret it. I shoot at 350d, and with this camera it works out at 100%, now I plan to test it with 40D, let’s see what happens. In short, I advise all beginners. But professionals, I think, do not stop by here))

An excellent telephoto lens for a beginner photographer in addition to a staff and budget portrait lens 50 1.8 II. Covers the range of focal lengths necessary for a beginner, in good weather, quite suitable pictures come out. Quite good in terms of mastering the use of telephoto. As for the vignetting at the long end - try loading the data on the correction of peripheral illumination into the camera database and then turn on the correction, there is no vignette in my pictures, although I read…

The first one I bought after using the kit on the EOS 400d, when the zoom began to lack. Then I realized the need to purchase interchangeable lenses, because. These images are much better, sharper and cleaner from noise than whale shots. I use it mainly for shooting animals or high-placed objects, elements of architecture, etc., it is also quite suitable for portraits (although I often use a 50 / 1.8 fix for them or a regular 28-135 USM).

Filmed with a Canon 450D. On the open it lathers, but not much, if you cover it, the quality is not bad. Kit 18-55 is his brother in design. I am pleased with the presence of a good stabilizer - it saves a lot when shooting handheld. I don’t often shoot with telephoto lenses, so buying an expensive lens was not justified, and the presence of such focal lenses is sometimes required. I bought it to try and left it like that. I think it's worth the money, but nothing more.

For 8 months of use has passed . I remember with joy. But for today's purposes 28-105 reportage is a portrait. 55-250 is a marketing ploy - an appendage to the whale, you put a normal standard lens and the need to use 55-250 drops sharply! lies in a bag with a makeweight rarely used. After buying the 550D, it practically stopped getting sharp with it only from the F8. IMHO it is not for megapixel cameras.
