Hey guys. I know that when you buy a regular or "full frame" lens and use it on a crop sensor, you multiply the crop factor to get the focal length on that sensor. 50mm on a full frame becomes 80mm on my 80D. What i was wondering was, i see that they make APS-C specific lenses, some of which won't work on a full frame body. When they label these as say 55-250, is it 55-250 on a crop sensor or is it 55-250 in the full frame world while being 88-400 on a crop lens. I would think that 55-250 would be going by the 35mm standard, but i'm unsure since they're being marketed as APS-C. Hope this wasn't too long winded.
P.S. Can anybody recommend me some cheaper sub 200$ lenses (preferably 100-150$) for my 80D? I have an 18-55mm II kit lens from my rebel xti, the 75-300 III Non IS and the standard plastic 50mm II. I was almost thinking about ditching them all and looking for 18-55 in a better build quality, 55-250 and then maybe the 50mm STM/10-18MM STM kit canon is offering now. Ideas are fully welcome, i'm on a super tight budget. Just bought a MeFoto Roadtrip tripod, Canon 80D body, spare canon battery, canon battery grip, a camera backpack and a lexar professional 1000x 16fb SDXC memory card, so my funds are fairly tight at the moment. I want to get an 18-135 STM (really looking to get mostly STM with this camera, i have read that STM focus faster and produce almost no sound). USM used to be what i wanted but since STM came out i mays well put my money into that. I don't want to be buying mediocre lenses (i understand my budget doesn't really work with that) but i'm hoping someone can give me an idea.
