Canon 55–250mm f/4–5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens: A compact, lightweight and versatile lens for general-purpose telephoto photography. Optical image stabilization technology allows you to use slower shutter speeds without image blur. Plus a UD-glass lens element corrects chromatic aberration, for excellent image quality throughout the zoom range.
This lens was purchased to replace a damaged 75-300mm lens that I had for almost 12 years. Gaining the extra f-stops that the IS affords me more than makes up for the decreased zoom. I immediately noticed an improvement in my images.

What's great about it: I really like the extra f-stops I get from having the image stabilization.
