High Performance Macro Lens

The Canon 100mm F2.8L Macro IS USM Lens was the first lens from Canon to feature two distinct Image Stabilization modes, which later became one of the most noticeable features. A lot of lenses have been launched since then, but the Canon 100mm Macro 2.8 remains a hot favourite among photographers who love to get close to the macro world. Built to focus over full range from infinity to complete life size macro, this versatile lens is every photographer's delight. Sturdily built, lightweight and compact, the Canon 100mm Macro Lens is easy to carry around.

Silent and Fast Auto Focus

In the macro world, quiet operations are a blessing in disguise. While most Canon lenses that feature the Ultrasonic Auto focus Motor are relatively quiet, the Canon 100mm Macro 2.8 does an exemplary job. It is fast and silent throughout its focus range. At the same time, full time manual focusing allows the shooter to override the auto focus anytime. To restrict full or controlled focus distances, there is a focus limited switch which allows faster auto focus within controlled ranges. The optical quality on the Canon 100 mm Macro 2.8L is top notch.

Single Lens for Both Macro and Portrait Photography

There is a thin line that separates a specialized macro lens and a dedicated portrait lens. Canon Macro 100mm bridges that gap seamlessly. The 100 mm focal length and out of-focus elements that melt into the image make this an amazing portrait lens as well. The sharpness is immaculate at wide open too. Add the three group floating element which delivers impeccable close ups, and you know that you have a winner on your hands. So, irrespective of whether its macro or portraits that catch your fancy, you will love this Canon USM lens.
