Primarily crafted for close-up photography, Canons EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM is a versatile L-series short telephoto prime lens, ideal for portraiture and other mid-range subjects. As a dedicated macro lens, it delivers life-size, 1:1 maximum magnification and a minimum focusing distance of 11.8 in. To enhance close-up shooting, it features an Image Stabilizer that reduces camera shake by two stops at full 1:1 magnification, or up to four stops at lower magnifications, ensuring sharper handheld shots.

For smooth and intuitive handling, this lens includes a ring-type USM and internal focusing design, offering quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance with full-time manual focus override. On the optical front, it boasts one ultra-low dispersion element to control color fringing and chromatic aberrations, while a Super Spectra coating minimizes flare and ghosting, improving contrast and color fidelity. As an L-series lens, it is weather-sealed, making it suitable for use in challenging conditions.

Designed for full-frame Canon EF-mount DSLRs, this short telephoto prime lens can also be used with APS-C models, providing a 160mm equivalent focal length. Perfect for macro photography, this lens offers 1:1 maximum magnification and an 11.8 in minimum focusing distance, ideal for capturing close-up details. The ultra-low dispersion (UD) element significantly reduces chromatic aberrations and color fringing, enhancing clarity and color accuracy. The Super Spectra coating applied to individual elements helps minimize ghosting and flare, delivering greater contrast and color neutrality in bright lighting conditions. The Optical Image Stabilizer reduces camera shake, supporting low-light shooting and slower shutter speeds, with compensation up to two stops at 1:1 magnification, three stops at 1:2 magnification, and four stops at lower magnifications. The ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM) and internal focusing design ensure fast, accurate, and quiet autofocus performance, along with full-time manual focus override. A Focus Limiter switch allows you to limit the focusing range for faster performance: 11.8 in-1.6 ft, 1.6 ft-infinity, or the full 11.8 in-infinity range. The rounded nine-blade diaphragm creates a pleasing out-of-focus quality, ideal for shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques. As part of the prestigious L-series, this lens is sealed against dust and moisture, making it reliable in harsh environmental conditions. An optional rotating tripod collar enhances stability when using the lens on a tripod or monopod.
