Yippee... finally a tele lens..

I've finally gotten myself a tele lens after much thoughts. At first, I plan to get 85mm f/1.8 first. But this lens is in shortage everywhere in Penang. So I grab the next lens that I need which is tele lens. I have to choice which is 55-250mm IS and 70-200mm f/2.8. But after much thought, I decide to save money. Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 is just too expensive. It actually approaching RM5000 for a new one and its not stabilized. Whereas, a stabilized one costing more than RM6,000. That's a lot of money and I'm not a professional. If I were to get Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8, it will cost me RM2750. But review everywhere said that the focussing system of the lens with Canon 40D is a hit and miss affair and also slow. Due to this, I just grab a 55-250mm IS lens which cost RM730. Next lens will be 85mm f/1.8.

Here is some of the photos that I took with 55-250mm IS:
