... produce razor sharp and vibrant images with the perfect level of contrast. It's quick to respond and the autofocus is very fast. It's also worth noting that the auto focus mode got it spot on in every shot I tried, allowing for minimal fuss and having to spend time composing the photo manually (while it does give you a manual option should you desire it.) You would never have to worry about chromatic aberration, or lens distortion with this Canon, and it seems capable of capturing exactly what I wanted in it's first...more

100mm and similar macro lens are ideal for dipping into the world on the small side.

First the technical stuff, weighing in at 21.1 ounces you get a nice sturdy feel that is still handholdable (real word?) with ... Read the complete review
