This lens zooms the clockwise direction like Canon if that matters. It has optical stabilizer. Great for replacing 18-55 an d 55-200 kit lenses.

Well, I was waiting for this deal to come up again somewhere and I bought one. Not a refurb either.

For those still considering that deal, I replaced my 18-55 & 55-250 pair with this one and the only downside I see is that at 250 it's a bit less sharp than the kit lens (which was already not so sharp at this FL). Not a big deal and it gets better at 200 so I usually just stop there. It's a minor tradeoff compared to carrying an extra lens.
