So I have a 650d, Tokina 11-16mm, 18-55mm STM, 50mm f1.8.

Looking for a bit more reach, but not really lookign to spend a fortune. Most of my usage is outside/holidays/camping, some sports stuff, but not as a 'sports photographer'. Probably looking to stick with the Canon STM lenses. The 18-55 isn't the most amazing lens, for example I prefer the colours I seem to get from the 11-16 and the overall 'look' from the 50mm. However I've still got some nice images out of the 18-55 and what it loses out on I can often fix in PP.

My current dilemna is 18-135 or 55-250. I don't always need the reach, so my concern is that the 55-250 will be a pain and not be on the camera when I need it. However 250mm is a lot more than 135! I also take it as a good sign that thet 18-135 is often bundled with some of the higher end canon crop DSLRs.

Thoughts?
