Capture Stunning Close-ups with the EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM
In order to introduce more users to the exhilarating world of macro photography, Canon released the EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM. While this macro lens is mainly built for close-up shooting, it's also suitable for capturing portraits and other mid-range subjects. It features optics of the highest quality alongside near-silent Ultrasonic focusing and adapter-less, life-size close-up capabilities. It includes Canon's advanced Hybrid Image Stabilization technology, making it the first of its kind to do so.
The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM is sturdy and durable. It boasts a metal mount, a high-quality plastic barrel, and a rubber-coated focus ring. You can also use the lens in inclement conditions as it is weather-sealed.

This Canon 100mm macro lens incorporates the following key features:
@@EF mount lens for full-frame format DSLRs @@f/2.8 to f/32 aperture range @@Single ultra-low dispersion element @@Super Spectra coating @@1:1 magnification, 11.8" minimum focus @@Ring-type Ultrasonic Motor AF system @@Focus range limiter @@Optical image stabilizer @@Weather-sealed construction @@Rounded 9-blade diaphragm

Compatible with Full-Frame DSLRs & APS-C Cameras
The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM features EOS camera compatibility. Experts say it's best paired with Canon's mid to high-end DSLR models, including the Canon 5D Mark II. While the brand has specifically built the lens for their full-frame DSLR cameras with EF mounts, you can also use it on APS-C cameras. The EF 100mm f/2.8 L offers an equivalent focal length of 160mm when it is used on APS-C models.

Impressive Aperture Range of f/2.8 to f/32
This Canon 100mm macro lens allows apertures between f/2.8 to f/32. Its f/2.8 aperture creates distance by delivering a shallow depth of field and yields impressive sharpness and contrast. On the other hand, it will slightly enhance the center of the frame and render exceptionally sharp corners at f/4. The center will see a very small improvement if you decide to shoot at an aperture of f/5.6.

High-Quality Optics for Superior Imaging
The optical construction of the EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM incorporates 15 lens elements in 12 groups. These elements include a single ultra-low dispersion element that provides color fringing and chromatic aberration control. Additionally, Canon has applied a Super Spectra coating to the lens, which helps it control flare and ghosting. The coating brings about enhanced contrast and color fidelity.

Shoot Close-Up Subjects with 1:1 Maximum Magnification
If you want to shoot close-ups with your camera, the EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM is the perfect lens for capturing macro images. This is partly due to its life-size 1:1 maximum magnification, together with a minimum focusing distance of 11.8". This means the object you're photographing will be the same size on the camera sensor.
This Canon macro lens can achieve even greater magnification when you use it with Canon extension tubes. It can deliver a magnification range of 1.17-0.12 with an EF12 II extension tube. If an EF25 II extension is used, you can get a 1.37-0.27 range.

Use the Focus Range Limiter or Fast, Silent Autofocus
The EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM provides an 11.8" minimum focusing distance and features a focus range limiter. The latter has three options: macro (0.3-0.5), long-range (0.5m-infinity), and full focus. If you utilize any of these ranges, your choice will notably improve focus speed.
In terms of autofocus, the lens features a ring-type Ultrasonic Motor AF system and an internal focusing design. These two components provide you with fast, silent, and precise autofocus and a full-time manual focus override.

Minimize Shift-Based Shakes with Hybrid IS Technology
Images that are shot using standard shooting styles can go through remarkable changes due to abrupt camera angle adjustments. However, shift camera shakes are more evident in macro photography and other types of close-range shooting. The EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM incorporates Canon's Hybrid Image Stabilization technology, which features effective angular and shift camera shake compensation. These specific types of camera shake are excessive in extreme close-up capture.
To eliminate both angular and shift-based shaking, velocity and acceleration sensors are included in the Hybrid IS. The velocity sensor features angular shake level detection, while the accelaration sensor determines the amount of shift-based shaking. The Hybrid IS counteracts up to two stops of camera shake 1:1 magnification and three stops at 1:2 magnification. It also features four-stop shake compensation for lower magnification levels.

Create Smooth Bokehs with the 9-Blade Diaphragm
The EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM's 9-blade rounded diaphragm and f/2.8 maximum aperture creates a remarkable bokeh effect. The circular aperture helps deliver a pleasing out-of-focus quality. This is particularly useful for both shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques. The lens smoothly renders out-of-focus highlights and keeps them fully rounded up to f/5.6.
