This article will provide you some useful information on what to expect when you do decided t purchase this popular lens for your camera.

The first great thing going for this item is the price. Many users have commented that the price was what first attracted them to the unit, considering that many others with the same 50 to 255mm focal length can go for almost twice to three times the price. And with its built in image stabilizer and four stop stabilization correction, the price really cannot be beat.

According to its makers, the unit has enviable features despite is light weight and small size. Weighing less than a pound and just over four inches in length, the manufacturers attest that it can meet the demands of even the most discerning photographer.

Its 70mm diameter lens is really designed for outdoor use, so some may have a few issues when it is used indoors, especially with overall image quality and contrast. However, sports fans will get great shots with its image stabilizer and be able to get real good action shots with its ability to have images slow to as much as one fifteenth of a second. Those who love to shoot at night, take landscape and scenic photographs and also wildlife shots will not be disappointed either.

Satisfied users have also commented on its easy interchangeability and the autofocus. Most have found the autofocus to be quite fast enough for their needs and quite accurate for a lens of its price. On top of this, they are in general satisfied with its good range as well as the overall image quality it gives.

Others however do say that you get what you pay for. They say that the low price comes at a cost as they feel that the construction of the lens body is somewhat soft and flimsy. Others have commented that what others find as a fairly reasonable fast autofocus is really quite slow, alongside comments that the small aperture is something that needs to be improved.

As with all kinds of products, you cannot please everyone. But for an entry level telephoto lens, the Canon 2044B002 manages to hold up on its own. Its built in features packaged in a small and compact casing at an affordable price makes this a great entry level piece of equipment for those thinking of taking their photography one step further.
