Interesting upgrade as the focal lengths are different. I could never live with the 55-250mm as my main lens. I would need something wider.

Yes and no. On a full frame camera, it is true they are different. But I have APS-C camera. so 1.6 multiple. When you convert, 28-105, it becomes 45-168. So, 55-250 is not that far off.
