Canon SL1 lenses 55-250 or 55-250stabalized

[beadsbybetty]

I'm trying to decide on purchasing the Canon SL1 which comes with 18-55mm lens + 75-300mm lens(unstabalized)--or-- the other bundle which is the SL1 w/18-55mm + 55-250mm-stabalized lens. (The 18-55mm is stabalized.) I can buy either bundle. Which is best? I shoot landscape, floral (close), grandkids, my handmade jewelry(macro), family. Which longer lens is better: 55-250mm(stabalized) or 75-300mm(unstabalized)? Thanks,

I am surprised you didn't get a reply for this earlier.

The answer is pretty simple. I would get the stabilized lens over an un-stabilized one any day. I am not accustomed to these particular lenses but the stabilization will help when it comes to any macro photography and video stuff.

Pretty much a no brainer in my opinion!

Hope this helped!

Hi wordofmitch, Thanks for answering. I got the 18-55mm with the Canon SL1 for now and plan to get the 55-250mm stabilized later.
