Awesome lens, awesome price. Will definitely improve your macro pics.

Pros: Easily Interchangeable, Nice Bokeh, Lightweight, Fast / accurate auto-focus, Consistent Output Cons: Other thoughts: good product

I bought this lens not knowing what to expect. It was my first prime lens which I got myself and for some reason, I picked this 100mm over the nifty fifty. When I finally received it, it was a really good lens. But when I kept using it over the months, I realized that this was a great lens.

I bought this one as a portrait lens capable of producing some kind of ′medium format look′, working with a very selective sharpness wide open. I wasn′t disappointed, this one is perfect for shooting people wide open and creating effects of totally blurred out-of-focus areas.

Приобрела этот объектив по акции Кэнон, что позволило сэкономить 6 тыс. руб. Пользуюсь уже полгода, очень довольна: цепкий фокус даже на полностью открытой дырке, отличное боке и стаб. Единственное: через несколько месяцев стала иногда греметь задняя линза (люфт или вибрация).

If you're looking for a canon portrait lens, but don't want to go to the extent of the L series, but don't want to compromise, then the Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM is for you. Offering stellar performance at a brilliant price point, this 100mm won't let you down.

The optical construction is made of 8 elements in 6 groups without any special elements (which aren't really common in this lens class anyway). The lens features 8 aperture blades. The filter size is 58mm.

This is a follow-up to my 2015 review. This lens still continues to blow me away in full frame format. It has to be one of Canon's most underrated lenses. It excels in all possible ways. My prior review primarily focused on landscape photography at smaller apertures.

I picked this lens up from Amazon used for $250. The focus on it is fast and mostly accurate and it allows you to get good pictures in many situations. Only issue I've noticed with the lens is that there's a moderate anount of chromatic abbretion when using it in sunny weather at a larger aperture.

I no longer have this lens, but I really enjoyed it while I did. The quality it produces is really excellent. AF is very quick and responsive and it works great in low light. My only complaint is that the build quality could have been better.

Sharp wide-open; fantastic bokeh; responsive AF; physically a small and compact lens for the focal length

build could be more durable.
