yikes.. i was comfortable with the plastic mount but i don't like that it's ALL plasticky.. esp at 3x the cost of the 55-250.
really? you can get the 55-250 IS STM for 125?
not the STM.
okay .. so you are looking at a lens that isn't even currently being produced and is being dumped off and using that as a comparison.
right.
Of course the ISII is a reasonable comparison. Who cares if it is currently being produced? It is a good lens and a bargain.
Are you sure it isn't being made? Canon is so big they have product segmentation even in the kit lenses.
well okay, then .. 45000 Yen for the EF-S 55-250 IS II a few months after it was released as well, which works out to around 47,500 yen in today's yen inflation rate.
the original - EF-S 55-250mm IS was also 45,000 yen.
again - not much different.
street value / price means nothing to what the lens comes out as far as as retail price. you will find that canon is pretty consistent with it's yen pricing from release to release.
so there you have it:
EF-S 55-250mm IS - 45000Y (47000Y today)
EF-S 55-250mm IS II - 45000Y (47500Y today)
EF-M 55-200mm IS STM - 49000Y
EF-S 55-250mm IS STM - 50000Y
(btw, 2000Y is around 20 bucks)
Good info. Canon's DSLR lens sales are so large that one way or another (unbundled kits, end of life discounts) the DSLR kit lenses can eventually be bought cheap. On the other hand M sales are so low and lens introductions so slow that it might be years before the new EF-M 55-200 goes for much less than $400.
hard to say, the EF-M kit lenses are already sold for cheap, but yes, i see the 11-22 and 55-200 as being limited run lenses that really are not mass produced - so the price would not drop down as quickly.

Fujifilm's X-H2 is a high-resolution stills and video camera, that sits alongside the high-speed X-H2S at the pinnacle of the company's range of X-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras. We dug into what it does and what it means.
Holy Stone produces dozens of low-cost drone models aimed at consumers. We look at the HS710 and HS175D to see if they stack up to other sub-250g offerings. Are these secretly great or more like toys?
