Re: Those who have 55-200, was it worth getting the 55-250?

I have both and use them for different set-ups.

  • The EF-S 55-250mm STM IS goes with M6ii and 1.4  converter for extra reach.
  • The EF-M 55-200mm is permanently on one M100 body (15-45mm on another one) in 1 small messenger bag as light dual camera setup. 

As stated, EF-S has closer focus distance and thus better macro capabilities. I have not yet done a benchmark test on IQ.
