The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro lens is a high-performance L-series lens designed for photographers seeking life-size close-up imaging without compromising on optical quality. With a 100mm focal length, it is ideal for portraiture, telephoto applications, and macro photography, offering 1:1 reproduction at a minimum focus distance of just 30 cm.

Advanced optics, including ultra-low dispersion lens elements, deliver crisp, high-contrast images, while Hybrid Optical Image Stabilisation compensates for angular and shift camera shake, providing up to four stops of shake control. The ultrasonic focus motor (USM) enables fast, quiet autofocus with full-time manual override for precise adjustments, and a focus range limiter helps speed up AF performance. Designed for professional use, the lens features dust- and moisture-resistant sealing, a truly circular diaphragm for beautiful bokeh, and an internal focusing system that keeps the barrel stationary during use.

  • Life-size 1:1 macro magnification
  • Hybrid Optical Image Stabilisation (up to 4 stops)
  • Ultrasonic USM with full-time manual focus override
  • Dust- and moisture-resistant L-series construction
  • Minimum focus distance: 30 cm

Experience unparalleled macro and telephoto performance with the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro lens, combining precision, stability, and stunning optical clarity in one versatile L-series lens.

Best Canon Macro Lens

Best purchase ever! Crystal clear shots and definitely worth having one of these lenses on hand for those close up shots.

Portrait, Close-up and Macro shoots with one lens!

The Canon EF 100mm F/2.8 L IS USM Macro lens is Amazing!
There are many technical opinions, but I am just an artist and being a woman, I solely like a lens by the quality of my images and the actual results from my shoot.
I can shoot close-ups and macro photographs of Jewellery, Portrait and Macro Beauty and also flowers with only one lens and I can get the DOF I need. The images are sharp and I can capture stunning close-up shots without the need of a tripod. I feel that if your budget is a bit tight, you can shoot different art with the one lens. I have a 50mm and also a 24-107mm in my kit, but the 100mm Macro lens is my favourite.

Super lens

Lovely lens, I have used it for portrait shots as well as macro photography. Super fast lens. I also like the fact that it is not too heavy, especially when running around chasing insects. It is great in that you don't have to get too close to insects and disturb them, while taking the photo.

Thought it couldn't get better? It did.

I loved the old Canon EF 100mm - it was an excellent partner and trusted friend.
The EF 100mm f/2.8L IS has a slightly more plastic feel, but the superb quality of the glass and the wonderful image stabiliser makes it even better than its predecessor.
Excellent for close-ups. Great for food photography. A great choice for studio portraits and stock stills.
A must-have for your camera bag.
