  1. Nice macro and portrait lens.

    Reviewer: discs4sale, PriceGrabber

    I originally bought the non-macro version of the Canon 100mm lens, but returned it and bought this one instead. I wanted the macro option and payed the extra $130 to upgrade to this lens. Although I don't have much use for macro now, it does very well and I took pictures of my kids toys for fun. Read more

    • Very clear macro and can focus specifically on subject with large aperature setting. Can be used as non-macro lens and might be a better choice than the regular Canon ...
    • The lens hood is not included with the lens so it will cost an extra $40.00 to make the lens system "complete"
