This is my second rf-s lens after the 18-150mm for my R10 camera and I feel they make a great pair. The rf-s 55-210 mm now gives me more reach for kids sports and it is a pleasure to carry around. I love the looks and even looking forward to catch birds in flight at our local pond this weekend. Actually, Adorama put me on a waiting list for the lens and when the supply arrived from Canon they rushed out my copy and a few days later my beautiful lens was in my hands.
