Canon Query
Hi all, following on from my earlier question, I've been offered a 650D with two lenses,the CANON 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II EF-S to go with the 650D plus the EF-S/18-55 IS II/REG.

Anyone know about either of these, is this the good 55-250 lens?

Hoping to order within the next seven days!!!

John

I have the older 55-250 and it is pretty good for an inexpensive lens. Not very heavy either. The II verson is not much different, made a little cheaper in construction but the same glass.
