Product Description
The EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens could very well be the essential multipurpose lens for every camera bag due to its ability to capture sharp close-up images of small objects as well as beautiful portrait-length telephoto shots. The incorporation of Canon's new Hybrid IS in this L-series macro lens allows it to compensate more effectively for camera shake during close-up shooting and marks a significant improvement for professionals and advanced amateurs utilizing macro photography for portrait, nature or wedding shoots. New Hybrid IS Technology: Designed Especially for Macro Photography The world's first* optical image stabilizer for SLR cameras was introduced in the EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM in 1995. Since then, Canon has made continual advancements in IS systems to enhance panning capability and improve compensation for camera shake. Now, in a move aimed at extending image stabilization to the macro realm, Canon introduces its Hybrid IS in the new EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM - another first for Canon and the world. Conventional image stabilization technology is useful for reducing the effects of camera shake in non-macro shooting situations. When shooting handheld close-ups at 1x, however, camera shake makes it difficult to achieve acceptable results even with lenses incorporating conventional image stabilizers. Now, thanks to the Hybrid IS found in the EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM, Canon extends IS technology to the macro realm, making it easy to obtain clear handheld close-ups - a world first* and a definite advantage in environments where use of a tripod is not an option.

I was lucky to test some macro lens and i found that this lens is the best of them all. Not only you can get really up close to your subject but you can also use this lens as portrait lens. The cost of the lens is pretty high but i think it is worth the cost.

5 out of 5 stars I LOVE THIS LENS   August 28, 2010

I had the old 100mm macro before I bought this one
never looked back!

It is so good that I can not express how much I love it.

If you are still debating about which one to get, I warn you that this is the one to get. Otherwise, you will still be thinking about upgrading!

TRUST ME

I originally bought this lens for its macro capabilities and it is outstanding on that front--amazing detail. The pleasant surprise is how great this lens is for portraits. The 100mm focal length is very flattering and creates some really nice bokeh in the background.

It's a great lens, unless you have to work in a low-light condition. Might return. Needs improvement: 1.4 and FLD with 4-5 UDs. But then it would be perfect... Let's see what Canon will show us on 09/02 at JJ Center in NY...

I am satisfied with this product and the Vendor. I would recommend this Vendor to everyone. I was disappointed it didn't have Image Stabilization at this price.
