  • Canon's really raised the bar with this lens: exceptionally sharp, even wide open at f/2.8, with strong results for resistance to chromatic aberration and distortion. Corner shading can be a tad high at f/2.8 when used on a full-frame body, but for macro ...

  • The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM L IS macro is a very fine lens and a welcome new option in the market. The resolution is generally very high although the border quality could be a little better at large aperture settings. Typical for macro lenses distort...

  • The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM L IS macro has a comparatively easy play in the APS-C arena. The center to corner resolution is very high up to f/11 and even f/16 is a perfectly usable setting here. Typical for macro lenses distortions are a non-issue. V...

  • Abstract:  The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Macro Lens review is planned. I dont regularly include Canons theoretical MTF charts in the reviews, but this one is drool-worthy. This lens promises to be extremely sharp wide open. ...

  • Abstract:  Back in July 2009, Canon announced a new 'hybrid' image stabilisation system designed for macro photography. Able to compensate for both the standard angular movement and the small shifts in the angle at which the lens is pointed during hand-held shoot...

  • Qualité de construction, Finitions, design, Prise en main, Stabilisation optique, Qualité optique générale, Piqué élevé au centre dès f/2,8, Pas de distorsions, Pas d'aberrations chromatiques
  • Performances de la stabilisation optique, Manque d'homogénéité du piqué entre le centre et les bords des images aux plus grandes ouvertures, Vignetage visible jusqu'à f/4
  • Impossible de ne pas recommander cet objectif qui se présente comme un "must have" dans toute besace de photographe. Il ne faut pas sous-estimer la polyvalence d'un objectif macro de ce type. Outre ses possibilités évidentes en photo très rapprochée de fa...
