What is the difference in this lens and the EF-S - Telezoomobjektiv - 55 -250 mm?

the "efs" signifies that it will only work with a crop sensor camera. so if your camera is full frame, this lens will not work on your body...

As near as I can tell it is the same. Note: Canon came out with a new version of the same 55-250 lens with an STM motor so the older IS II version can be found for a good price. I am happy with my 55-250 IS II.

Thank you for your interest in our package deal! Both are the same camera by Canon USA. EF-S refers to the type of lens included with the outfit. The "S" in EF-S comes from "Small image circle", meaning the lens is designed to provide a small (relative to a normal EF lens) image circle to match the sensor.[1] The smaller mirror used in APS-C cameras also allows optical elements to protrude further into the camera body, which enhances the possibilities for wide angle and very wide angle lenses, enabling them to be made smaller, lighter (containing less glass), faster (larger aperture) and less expensive. For more information, we advise speaking to our sales department directly. They can be reached at 800-991-3350 EST.

The lens included inside the camera box (18-135mm) is an IS STM lens while the 55-200mm lens is an IS II.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. The difference could pay for the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS - A quick lens is very versatile.

Hi Technology Guy,I liked you responses to the questions asked by fellow buyers. You may find me moron asking this but I searched quite a bit on google but did not get any definite answer. Could you help me decide if it is wise to buy T3i (600D) with "Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens" and do not buy "EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens"? OR if I need to have both lenses to start with. Thanks in advance.

Hi, the lens is Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 14-42mm 1:3.5-5.6 II R. Anyway, I've tried both and seems like there's no difference at all. I recommend that after you bought this camera, buy other lens to use instead of this one.

I don't know if it was a mistake or not, but the two lenses I received were both STM lenses: EF-S 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS STM and EF-S 55-250mm 1:4-5.6 IS STM.

I would go to the website and see what info you can find there. They may have both lenses there. You can also try to go to a photo review site such as Ken Rockwell to see what they have to say.

The Canon EF-S 55-250mm f4-5.6 IS lens requires a 58mm filter mount. The B+W Kaesemann Polarizer filter is 58mm so the answer to you "specific" question is yes. However my experience with this "high priced" palorizer filter is that it cuts down available light by 2-2 1/2 f-stops which I find objectionable.

The question is a little vague, but you are probably asking about differences between the H-VS014140 and the H-FS14140k. The FS is four years newer, 40% lighter than the VS and superior in most respects, although it is more expensive. The FS is an excellent lens.

They may be referring to the size of the plastic lens vs the larger size being the plastic outer frame. There is also another dimension for the metal chamber that goes up into the attic. Probably best to get the "specs" from the manufacturer on-line.

I also have the canon 55-250mm and was shopping for a Kenko Teleconverter. Am I understanding correctly, that if I don't mind manually focusing, it still might work?

If you are really talking about the 18-300mm the older model is bigger and heavier with the same optic specs. The new one, $100 cheaper, has very good image quality and does macro close ups very well. This lens supplements my 150-500mm lens. This lens is 67mm and does not come with a hood. I am very happy with this lens

This lens is for close up pictures at relatively short distances. The other is a telephoto lens for taking close ups of larger items at longer distances.

The end that the lens fits on is 55mm, the same size of the Panasonic close-up lens DMW-LC55.
