I think since reading this review and a few others the 55-250mm would be better for you for the price for sure!

Thanks man, my Google-fu sucks lately. Additionally, can anyone tell me what the difference is in these two lenses?

compare | B&H Photo Video

All I can see is one says imported other says USA and there is a $10 difference.

The only difference between the two is this.

One of those lenses is grey market. Which means no manufacturer's warranty.

I saw that, what threw me off was the part numbers were different between the two.

Except that looks terrible. The hard part is striking a balance on how much saturation, contrast and sharpness are enough.

That particular image is a little out of focus, so sharpening it is going to look harsh.

Picture perfect really means perfect. Focus has got to be perfect or the image isnt going to be your best work. Takes a lot of practice to get focused paintball images. Usm lenses help a lot. Keep it up
