EFS 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM

Telephoto lens for Canon APS-C

The EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens from Canon is a versatile telephoto zoom lens for Canon APS-C cameras, providing a focal length range equivalent to 88-400mm on a 35mm sensor. It features an image stabiliser that lets you shoot at up to 3.5 shutter speed steps slower than would otherwise be possible and a STM stepping motor for fast, smooth and silent auto focus.

Full-time manual focus is supported to permit fine-tuning of focus even when in AF modes and the front lens section does not rotate during focusing, benefiting the use of polarizing filters. Optically one ultra-low dispersion glass element helps reduce chromatic aberrations and distortion throughout the zoom range while also enhancing contrast and clarity. Optimized lens coatings have also been applied to ensure colour fidelity by countering the effects of lens flare and ghosting.
