Well I picked up a 55-250mm the other day from a local camera shop and here are some of my first pictures taken with it. All taken at 250mm and all taken right off the camera.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks.

Looks like a great lens when one doesn't want to lug a 2.8 around

Jan 12, 2010 08:19 | #15 Diego, the pic looks sharper. This is not the section to critique pics but my suggestion would be to crop a lot behind the airplane and lighten up the shadows (thetrees are loosing a lot of detail). Anyway, your point is completely valid; the 55-250 is a very nice lens. Juan
