First of all ClickElectronics are wrong to group all canon 100mm usm together as there is a big price difference between the three versions and I dont see a way of choosing the one I purchased . The superior one is l series and has IS . My budget at the time could not stretch to the more expensive one so I have the one without IS. Despite this its a great lens and i use it lots. Colours and details are fantastic . I wish Id saved up for the more expensive one though but Ill make good use for this now .

Great Macro Lens

This is a fantastic lens. Pin sharp with a smooth and creamy bokeh. The IS system is very effective but you will still need a tripod if you are focusing down to 1:1 or thereabouts. Use the focus limiters as you will find it tends to hunt quite a lot if you are not in the right range. The biggest thing you need to know about this lens it to make sure the IS system has stopped running and is “parked” before you remove it from the lens. I have not done this a couple of times in haste and it leaves the inner element in a free state, rather than being locked safely in place, rattling around inside the body, which can be a bit scary initially and could cause damage over time if not addressed. However, the two times I have had this happen, it has not caused any damage whatsoever and the lens is still in perfect condition and functionality. Well worth every penny of the price. It is a bargain in my mind and is rarely off my camera. I also use it as a general walk-about lens for landscapes and portraits etc. However, it is, as I said, pin sharp and can show up details that you might not want to see! 😉

Fantastic lens for macro shots of bugs

It’s on Black Friday deals 2017 at 799, but I purchased this lens full price from new (ClickElectronics) a few months ago for £685. So the deal price is £114 more than the normal price? Don’t buy it – wait for a better price.Token review: it’s a great lens, I’m on my second copy in 10 years, wouldn’t swap it for the world. Great for portraits, good in the studio, and wonderful for chasing pieces of dust or bugs if that’s your thing. As for me, this is a no-brainer for weddings and product photography.

Please note – some of the reviews here are for the non-L macro lens. Just to be clear, this is for the Canon EF 100mm f2.8L Macro IS USM Lens.This is, quite honestly, a stunning lens – and I write as someone who has several L-series lenses. Image quality is startling – better than my go-to EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM; colour rendition faithful and bright. (Of course, it is a prime lens, but even so.)As a walk-around lens, this has performed well for me as a medium telephoto – making me think about composition and using the “foot-zoom” has been fun. It is very well made and solid in feel without being heavy – as you’d expect from an L-series lens, build quality is excellent.But of course it is the macro performance that is the best feature of this lens. Close focus is excellent, and the (supplied) lens hood allows you to get very close to the subject without worrying about contact with the glass – a real benefit of the 100mm macro lens against those with shorter focal lengths. The aperture of 2.8 is fast enough for hand-held performance in decent light – of course, at this aperture depth of field is VERY narrow: see the picture of the caterpillar for an image captured at f2.8; the burnets were captured at f5.6 – you can see the wider depth of field; the (white and pink) Great Masterwort was taken at f20.In short, this is probably my favourite lens. I’d give 6 stars if I could!

Lente com desempenho de nitidez e qualidade de cores, igual a 70-200 2.8L, porém mais leve e menor (para quem só precisa de 100mm). Estou muito satisfeito com a qualidade dos resultados. Robusta e muito bonita, é de uma construção admirável.
