Re: 28-105 vs new 55-250

Actually the 55-250 STM is not really that much slower.  The 28-105 doesn't even offer the focal lengths where the 55-250 is limited to 5.6.  It's not any more than a 1/3rd stop slower at any focal length and it's equal most of the time.  Still I would want a 18-55 STM to use with the 55-250.
