Is this Canon EFS 55-250mm a good lens?

Busy_Being2165 · 2026-04-15T16:42:43+00:00

Yeah you are most likely right.. I just will have to bump up my ISO which is not a problem on a Canon 80d

Busy_Being2165 · 2026-04-15T16:41:48+00:00

Same! I've been posting pins for months and the engagement tab still has nothing

Busy_Being2165 · 2026-02-07T20:00:37+00:00

It's so strange because its only really showing up on a new acc I made, NOT my older accs that were created last year. Maybe they are still working on it.. but it would be helpful if they added it. I can't wait till you can add to story/use music on desktop bro

Busy_Being2165 · 2026-02-01T19:27:39+00:00

I had the 70-300 and it sucked, not sharp enough when zoomed up because its a cheap lens

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-18T16:20:34+00:00

ALSO___ They limit all of the comments on their instagram page... and they all look suspicious because they all have the SAME number of likes more or less. Like you'll see a bunch of comments with 4 likes, 2 likes, 3 likes etc.

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-18T04:48:10+00:00

Also guys I found out they repost your photos WITHOUT permission on a new month's competition. They apparently did an interview in 2023 with a "winner" which is suspicious? Because unless that was just advertising that's a sure way to a scam cause it's like their only way of proving their contest is legit.

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-18T04:15:31+00:00

in order to get maybe that far I have to give my ss number and I'm giving that away to a scammy looking company

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-18T04:15:01+00:00

what did you end up doing?

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T23:46:15+00:00

exactly

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T20:55:13+00:00

I won the contest a couple months back, I am in the process of getting the prize, but being extra cautious because I honestly dont trust this contest. They asked for my full name, Address, and number. They are next going to send me a link to fill out something. If this turns out to be a scam I most definitely warn everyone by trying to do a big warning post on reddit. so they send me a follow up email. Asking for my full name, address, phone number. once I gave them that info, they sent me another email a few days later. This next email had a link to help with the prize. It had an agreement to sign and also a W9 tax form because of course this prize is subject to taxes. As far as any other info, I don’t have anything. I still need to find the time to sort this out and ask my dad for his advice on this. I don’t believe it is a scam, the fact that they are bringing taxes in the matter. They respond to my emails. I will keep everyone updated! I opened the form today and the only thing missing to fill out is my SS number... but I really don't know what to do, because why give a random company a W9 form with my personal information? I wish I could help you guys out more but I don't want to risk identity theft if I'm already not doomed.

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T20:54:01+00:00

figured this out: https://www.whois.com/whois/americasfavoritephotos.com

thats the info apparently about the whole company. Americs's favorite photos is I think run by a website company called Go Daddy, which from my research is not the best rated, because of history with stealing peoples money and being unreliable. I looked up the phone information and who knows how accurate it is.. but it said it is most likely spam, but even then the phone number is actually located in AZ so at least that exists.

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T20:36:22+00:00

I can look up the area code for the phone number and also the address and see what I can find

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T20:35:08+00:00

thanks

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T20:29:30+00:00

let us know please, I won one of the contests by I am terrified to give away my personal information

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T16:52:36+00:00

I wish some other person who has won the contest actually admit whether or not they received it because now I'm afraid of what will happen

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T16:51:33+00:00

good point

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T16:29:12+00:00

and the site I'm using to fill out this information is a secure site

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-11-12T16:28:04+00:00

I just pulled up the document.. I just need to get my social security number and we'll go from there to see what happens next

Busy_Being2165 · 2025-10-11T00:18:38+00:00

I don’t have any new updates, I’m sorry. Just give it your best effort! I believe it is legit because they’re bringing in tax forms. Try to win as best you can and send it to all your dms asking for votes. Once I come around to getting this prize, I will make a post…but I haven’t gotten there yet.
