Review on Canon 100Mm Macro Digital Cameras Camera & Photo by Mateusz Smoliski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

Despite my preference for the Zeiss 100/2 macro, which is an order of magnitude more expensive and lacks AF, I am really pleased with this lens. It takes stunning portraits and focuses quickly and precisely. Even though you won't be able to focus on the fly's eye (there's an MP-E65 for that), it allows you to take fully functional images at 1/25 (if it's not macro), and I've never looked back.

Pros
  • 2.8 is a great working hole since it is quick, accurate, and cheap.
Cons
  • Putting on the lid is unrealistic with the native lens hood attached, and the weight prevents the polarizer from being twisted. During auto-refocus, it occasionally emits ominous noises that make it sound like it's about to be hidden. It could be hard to focus in a totally black room.
