The Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras
This lens is perfect for long distance low light shots. In fact, many people say this is the best Canon SLR lens for long distance low light shots.
The main features of this lens include:
- A focal length & maximum aperture of 55-250mm f/4-5.6
- Lens construction 12 elements in 10 groups more than most
- Diagonal angle of view 27° 50′- 6° 15′ with an included image sensor (very nice!)
- Focus adjustment – DC motor, gear-driven like all Canon SLR lenses
I have been told that many sports photographers are using this lens now for taking photos of sports action from a medium to long distance. I imagine it would capture some pretty amazing close ups with a real warmth to the inner details and outlines.
