A Review Of The Canon 2044B002 Telephoto Lens

By Patrice McCoy


This article is written for the budding professional photographer or the photo enthusiast who wants to get more out of his or her hobby. You may already have a Canon EOS model and want to play around with the different lenses that can fit on it to make it more fun and exciting. A good option to make things more interesting is to purchase the Canon 2044B002 telephoto lens.

Nowadays, the later Canon EOS models usually comes bundled with the 2044B002 telephoto lens. If you opt to buy it separately however, this can be done too. This article covers some basic information on the pros and cons of this popular telephoto lens.

Probably the most salient feature of this lens is its price. On average you can get one for under two hundred dollars, which is fairly cheap when compared to other telephoto lenses in the market. It has a focal length of from 50mm to 255, and is definitely one you can use for great zoom shots. Its built in stabilizer is an added bonus for the more sensitive shots where you need a steady hand.

According to its makers, the unit has enviable features despite is light weight and small size. Weighing less than a pound and just over four inches in length, the manufacturers attest that it can meet the demands of even the most discerning photographer.

Its 70mm diameter lens is really designed for outdoor use, so some may have a few issues when it is used indoors, especially with overall image quality and contrast. However, sports fans will get great shots with its image stabilizer and be able to get real good action shots with its ability to have images slow to as much as one fifteenth of a second. Those who love to shoot at night, take landscape and scenic photographs and also wildlife shots will not be disappointed either.

Yet others also have found satisfaction with its ease of interchangeability plus its autofocus features, which they find to be sufficiently fast and accurate enough for their needs. The feature, alongside the good range, gives greater image quality.

Others however do say that you get what you pay for. They say that the low price comes at a cost as they feel that the construction of the lens body is somewhat soft and flimsy. Others have commented that what others find as a fairly reasonable fast autofocus is really quite slow, alongside comments that the small aperture is something that needs to be improved.

As with all kinds of products, you cannot please everyone. But for an entry level telephoto lens, the Canon 2044B002 manages to hold up on its own. Its built in features packaged in a small and compact casing at an affordable price makes this a great entry level piece of equipment for those thinking of taking their photography one step further.
