Editorial Reviews:

Super-compact and light, this lens is compatible with all EOS cameras and ideal for digital SLRs - when used on the EOS Digital Rebel, it's equivalent to an approx. 90-320mm lens. The 13-element design's new optical coatings are optimized for digital cameras. It focuses down to under 4 feet (1.2m), and its Micro USM-powered AF is faster than ever, due to new electronics within the lens.

Conclusion: good job


Review: An all around good product, this lens does exactly what it intends to do. Nothing amazing, but doesn't disappoint if you're looking for a standard medium zoom lens. Relatively light-weight, and quick and easy to put on.

Conclusion: Get what you pay for... in a good way


Review: You can't drop $200 and change on an entry level telephoto and expect it to be the most stunning piece of equipment you've ever laid eyes on. In that regard, I think the 55-200 does remarkably well. A bit of a learning curve involved, as it's not the fastest lens in the land.

It performs very well for sporting events, especially in the day. Nighttime sports are a cinch to shoot as long as the field/stadium lights are above average.

I love it to bits, I wouldn't travel anywhere without it in my camera bag (at least until I put aside enough coin for a real heavy-hitter telephoto). :)

Review: Excellent lens very fast and gets you up close and personal. I really like the color quality as well as the quick AF functionality. Highly recommend for anyone who is wanting nice closeups pictures while shooting from a distance.

Review: The Canon EF 55-200mm II USM is definitly worth the price. Autofocus responds well at all focal lengths. (See my photos for ballgame action & family portraits)
