Description

The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM is a prime telephoto macro lens for cameras with a Full Frame sensor and Canon EF mount. It has a 1:1 macro magnification ratio and hybrid image stabilization, which compensates for angular and lateral shift camera shake, especially in close-up shots. The f/2.8 aperture and ability to create a shallow depth of field help produce a bokeh effect, while the USM motor delivers fast, quiet autofocus.

The focus limiter switch restricts the focusing distance range for faster focusing. The lens can be used for macro photography, portraits, and handheld video.

What do users say? AI-generated summary

Users particularly appreciate the excellent sharpness and effective image stabilization. It’s considered versatile for macro photography, portraits, and video, with quiet focusing and solid build quality. However, some find the autofocus a little slow and the lens slightly larger than they’d like.

    Simply amazing. Incredible clarity. Fast, silent, and extremely accurate auto focus. Amazing hybrid stabilizer. 1:1 macro. Ideal for portraits, landscapes, and of course macro. Worth every euro you've paid. Requires an expensive filter for protection and to be dust and weatherproof. I have a B+W. I've had it for 8 years and it's still brand new.

    Multitool!
    One of the best lenses I have ever bought. Incredible clarity. Amazing stabilizer. A must for videos.
    I have used it in the rain and it has no problem at all.
    As for the focusing, it is fast and silent.
    I have had it for 6 years and it is like new.

    Amazing clarity and build quality.
    Quiet, although focusing is a bit slow.
    I would recommend manual focus, mainly through the very good feeling ring.
    The image stabilizer is barely noticeable.
    The lens is somewhat waterproof, so I can confidently use it in light drizzle.
    Of course, the purchase of a high-quality protective filter is necessary.

    This review is about the mount: Canon RF

    The lens shaves. A little bigger than I would like but very light.
