Pros: Lightweight, excellent sharpness and color rendering, AF discreet as responsiveness.

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: The dual personality of macros has always fascinated me. Bought used at a very affordable price, I immediately put it to the test and I must say that its yield even in portraits is excellent and particular. Lightweight with R adapter ring, it makes good with all selectors, from infinity to macro. One of those glasses that rejuvenates with the R system, having already been excellent on DSLRs.

Pros: Sharpness to sell, very light, excellent stabilization, variety of use.

Cons: If I have to be honest, not even the price becomes a counter to the "value" that it possesses

Opinion: Taken more on a whim than out of necessity, I found a good dealer offer (No RCE, fortunately) and I brought it together. What can I say, I mounted it, I tried it, I put the files to PC and I was really surprised. Needless to talk about the sharpness, which for this kind of Macro lenses is expected to be remarkable, I was most surprised by the paste of colors and the gradualness with which it fades into the blurred, what to say, beautiful. Since as an optics it is born with autofocus and stabilized (which for a pure Macro lens would be totally useless since the use of the tripod is a must) it makes it clear that it can be used in other contexts such as, for example, the portrait ... To put it under test I mounted it on the camera (1dx mk 2) and I kept it as the ONLY optics during the holiday in Sardinia this summer where, 90% of the shots, were made from the beach to the children who dived from the rocks. I knew that the situation would be that so 100mm of draft were fine to "reach" them but what I did not expect is the incredible quality of the files! Very sharp, incisive to the maximum, the whole frame very clean, stratospheric colors, made on the reflections of the water and backlight with silhouettes from the edges to border on magic, even opening the files to PC and zooming up to the pixels you do not see halos of any kind even in the areas of strongest contrast, not a smudge. What can I say, one of the best photographic surprises I've had. I'm using it for many jobs, many of them in the video field (AF very quiet, IS a little less). I would buy it again tomorrow.

Pros: Sharpness, colors, AF speed, excellent stabilization

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: After having had two specimens of the excellent canon 100mm macro usm (bought the first and subsequently sold for momentary little use, I then felt the lack and bought the second, then also sold in search of something different), I wanted to try the L and IS version of Canon that did nothing but confirm what good has been said about this lens. I often use it for portraits, an area in which the stabilizer gives a good help, but unlike what I thought even in macro applications, thanks to the hybrid stabilizer (so defined by Canon) it manages to make a good contribution during freehand shots. Plastic construction but resistant and reactive and very precise autofocus. The only one is the prohibitive cost for the original collar of the tripod, otherwise a must.

Pros: Construction, AF, hybrid stabilization, colors, contrast, blurry, sharpness

Cons: It's "just" 2.8, just to write something

Opinion: A lens that is of the same dough as the 70-200 more, however, has white and lively whites, then it is fast, engraved, excellent blurred, indeed, sensational, moderately light. Hybrid IS is a boon as it also compensates for forward-backward micro movements. Macro I do not do, I use it for some freehand close-up, portrait and low light situations. You can clearly see that it is made on purpose! In these fields excels, I replaced the 70-200 F2.8 IS II with the F4 IS version and this 100L, so as to gain in ductility and ... Even in weight, I no longer have a brick in my backpack that often made me leave it at home. Using it on the 5D III the AF is a sniper, I use it only in AF-C, even during theatrical performances of aerial fabrics, it is not wrong. Who finds it slow and noisy or has a broken lens or has a camera body that does not move it properly. For portraits it is great, the blurred is very sweet, despite being defined it is not nervous even in the most difficult situations, the light points always perfect, I prefer it to the 100 F2 which was too soft on the whole figures. In addition, the stabilizer also serves there, at 1/125 to me begins to shake my hand too much with the focal ones, so it is a valid help. A lens that takes "live" photos, to be used and cared for with great care!

Pros: Having taken it only now

Cons: Not having taken it before

Opinion: I am shocked. Really shocked. It's the first L series I buy, despite having already used others over the years, but this one... this is of another level. Taken at a great "used" price, also thanks to the desire of my partner to do macro. I eternal undecided between the 100mm f2.0 and the 135mm L in the end I took the 100mm L... well, I would say a great compromise!! Speaking of the lens there is at the same time little and much to say. The construction I find excellent, the weight all in all contained (weighs practically as much as my pentacon 135mm f2.8), the triple distance selector is a real godsend, the autofocus even in full I find it very fast and very quiet. The hood is a cannon, perhaps a little too long, but it does its job and, it may seem like, but mounting and disassembling it is a unique satisfaction from how fluid it is. The stabilizer does an excellent job on "normal" photos, while for freehand macros the problem is not so much the micro shake, as the very shallow depth of field and there is no stabilizer that helps, but it is still great for macros. From TA to f11 my specimen is a real blade, after that it starts to lose something, but from then on it is not the fault of the glass, but of the physics. Used on both 5d mk ii and 7d mk ii, so far it has never disappointed me. Also tried for portraits and churns out a blurry that I love madly and the detail is obviously macro. Sometimes it exalts you, sometimes you would like something softer (especially at TA), but I already knew it before buying it. Ultimately a fantastic goal, which if taken used at the right price is a real must-have. If I have to find a flaw for the use I make of it (amateur) is the lack of the tripod ring
