Does this lens extend ?

The lens does NOT physically extend longer than its original size. All the zoom functions occur within.

No it does not but it's a wonderful lens and I've never missed it. I use it for Real Estate Photography with a flash and it works great.

Yes, it does. I have a Canon SX50 and it's a perfect fit, so I've been quite happy with it. Much better than having to go with a larger lens - just not necessary.

No, it does not. For the price it is a good system but it would be better if the lens had a wider angle of view

I would say at max zoom it extends to about 6 inches. I don't have it to measure. Search on youtube for some demonstrations, that is what I did. Great lens!

depending on how big the lens is, but probably not. there is no space specifically for an extra lens

No, this lens is like a basic zoom lens, where each value of the focal length corresponds to a certain value of aperture opening.

Hi Carol, Unfortunately, it does not. But it is an absolutely fantastic lens.

The focus ring is the small one close to the mount. The large ring controls the Zoom and yes it does extend out.

Yes, it does. But plan to purchas a filter to protect the lens. It's my most used and most versatile lens. Great choice.

It does, yes. The cover ONLY fits if you have the hood on. For this lens, you'll basically always want to leave the hood on.

Yes, as you zoom from 55 upward to 250, the lens extends. However, unlike the previous version the front does not extend during focus.

I would have to say NO that it does not stretch, per say. However, I purchased the largest size to fit a Sigma 70-300 mm lens and this was the largest that I could find, so I took a chance on it accepting that lens and it did work. The lens is fairly well cushioned once in place.

Yes it does. Not the highest quality accessories though. But the lens itself has exceeded my expectations, very very good for the price.

I have a Canon...but I was able to completely extend the lens. I was also pleasantly surprised at how well the pictures had come out.

hello, this is an extension of the lens that fits on the front thread lens 18-55.

Yes it does. A screw on plastic grey one that fits over the lens when not in use.
