How far can a 55-250mm lens zoom?

We say the “crop factor” is 1.6. So to get the 35mm equivalent focal length of the 55-250 mm lens we multiply by 1.6, giving us a value of 88-400 mm. So in 35mm equivalent terms, the zoom range of the SX210 IS is 28-392 mm, and the 55-250 lens is 88-400 mm.

What is a 70 200mm lens good for?

Enter the 70-200mm lens. The 70-200mm reach is perfect for so many situations. It allows you to focus on key subjects, crop out distracting elements in your frame, and just get closer to the action.

Should I buy 70 200 lens?

A 70-200mm lens fills the need for an occasional sports lens perfectly. If you shoot a lot of indoor sports, you’ll need the speed of the 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. You’ll need a fast (wide) aperture of the f/2.8 lens to shoot at shutter speeds fast enough to stop action.

How far does a 70 300mm lens zoom?

The typical point and shoot fully zoomed out is roughly equivalent to 35mm, so 300mm would be 8.5x zoom. “super zoom” P&S usually start out wider to achieve the extra zoom range, something like 28mm, so 300mm would be 11x in those cameras.

Do I need 70-200 for wedding?

IMO the 70-200 is too long to be of much use at weddings. For the church ceremony it can be used to do close-ups of guests, speakers etc. but for the reception there usually isn’t space to use that long a lens. But your style may be different from mine.

How much zoom do you need for wildlife photography?

It’s hard to get close to most wild subjects, so wildlife photographers generally use long lenses: at least 300mm for an APS-C DSLR, or 400mm for a full-frame DSLR or 35mm SLR. If you can get fairly close to larger animals, a 70-200mm zoom can work.
