Default Canon 55-250 Deal at Amazon

I'm not a Canon guy, but Amazon has what looks to me like a great deal on the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS -- $144 for about 3 hours or as long as the supply lasts. (Lightning deal).

Mods: If this is too spammy, please pull it and accept my apologies.

It's an okay lens. Nothing to write home about, though. Remember that at less then $200, you are getting what you pay for.

If you're interested, this is the next best price I could find. Adorama is reputable.
