Amazing lens & great value

Bought this 2+ years ago and it's still my favorite - clarity, colors, perspective all produce amazing photos, esp. on a full-frame body. Depth of field at 2.8 on macro is about as narrow as you'd ever want, and the IS smooths out any hand shake in most light. And it's not too big or heavy, so it's easy to tote around. Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I thought it was just Macro, I was wrong.

I wish I'd bought this earlier. It is so much better than my other lenses it is mindboggling. Works great for macro shots, but also is a very potent medium telephoto. Looks amazing on portraits. Beautiful bokeh, great detail, color and contrast. Only thing I don't like is that the mode switch is covered when you have the lens hood on backwards. So you have to take it off to change from macro to normal focus. At which point the moment is gone.
I'm certainly sticking to L series glass from now on.

I got this a few years ago and have really got some great results from it. Very sharp images, quick focus, and not overly heavy.

Fantastically Sharp lens with super fast focusing

I bought this lens to do some small macro photography projects a couple years ago. It wasn't super great to use on my crop body as it was very difficult to get far enough away from my subject and still be able to keep everything in the frame. After I upgraded to the EOS R this past christmas, I found that it is one of my favorite lenses now. It is great for portrait work and have used it for some automotive photography as well. It's great for detail shots and for really separating the subject from the background. Definitely glad I purchased this lens.

Great Lens

Just bougt this lens about a week ago. I didn't have a lot of chance to use it yet but the little bit i did it is an awesome lens. I love the quality. i have been using it already for other things besides macro photography. one downside the Auto Focus is a bit slower than what i expected but since macro shots are always manual focused anyway...it doesn't really matter. And using it where you are not shooting closeups it really doesn't do too bad at focusing. Great lens! Highly recommend it.

Challenge, but Worth it!

This lens was a gift from my wife for our 29th Anniversary. I have always had a fascination with macro related subjects and now I can finally try it out. Challenging, but very rewarding using something of this quality. After the first couple of shots, the price tag was easily dismissed.

I purchased this lens a few weeks ago and I can't put it down. If you are looking for a macro lens, you can't go wrong with this one. I will let the attached photos speak for the lens. what you see is what you get. No additional sharpening was do on these photos. Pretty much as shot, handheld using auto focus with very little exposure and color adjustments in post process. I would highly recommend this lens.

I had been using an EF-S lens for Macro photography in the past. The images from this new lens just blows my old pictures away. Super sharp images.
