Camera lenses aren't cheap, especially north of the border, but there's a good deal on a Canon telephoto if you're interested in some new glass. While quantities last, you can pick up the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens on sale for $199.99 with free shipping. Though the item is being sold by Canadian Expo, it is still being fulfilled by Amazon which means the free shipping over $25 should apply.Often called the nifty 250mm, this is a good beginner telephoto for those of you that like to take sports shots outdoors -- where it's most effective. Indoors and in low light conditions, this lens doesn't perform well but outdoors in good light will net you some good shots -- especially with the built-in Image Stabilization. Average price is still around $300, so you'll want to pick it up now if you're interested.
Free shipping is available as the order is being fulfilled by Amazon. Quantities are limited, though, so you'll want to act fast if you hope to score this telephoto.
