ITS A QUALITY LENS,GREAT PRICE
I loved this lens when I received it, I tested it straight away and the quality is superb. Whilst not having an image stabalizer I still enjoy using it manually. The Smifu service is 5 stars for me and the shipment was great as well as a very good price!
WOW
I also have the 100 400 L , but for Macro this is the most fantastic lens I have ever owned.- amature photographer
CANON 100mm MACRO - AFFORDABLE FUN
I never thought macro photography could be so interesting and fun. This lens has a very precise area of focus. Macro isn't all you can do with it but for amatuer or enthusiast, you can have fun all day long. Half the price of is IS model but you just need a little more patience.- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Rugged
- Strong Construction
I don't know of anyone who has this lens and doesn't love it.
First I'd like to say that I checked out many different macro lenses before purchasing this particular lens. If I didn't have someone I could borrow from, I rented a lens from LensRentals.com. That being said here's my take on the lens.
Excellent for macro photography
[...]The lens itself feels well built and quite sturdy. The 2.8 aperture is a very welcome feature as this allows for relatively low light work and the minimum focussing distance means that you can get very, very close to your subject.- ,
Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens: a very sharp lens, and great for macro shooting and portrait ...
if you want to shoot macro you need this lens, if you want to do portraits get this or the 100mm f2- sharp
- good for macro and portraits
- all other lenses aren't as good or as cheap as this one
Wonderful macro lens
pros: produces very sharp images and excellent color rendering cons: nothing found yet
Excellent lens
This is a great lens for a great value. I added this lens to my newly forming collection and LOVE it. Extremely crisp, clear and vibrant pictures.
Better than expected
I chose this lens over several more expensive models based on test reports, user reviews and, above all, price. While it may not have the build quality and weather sealing of those more expensive models, it still feels quite well built.
