Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM Interchangeable Lens Review
This compact medium telephoto lens sports a fast f/2 aperture, which will make this lens ideal for low light photography or creative use of shallow depth of field. It sports a silent ultrasonic focusing motor, internal focusing and costs around £380.
Canon also offer two macro lenses at this focal length with a maximum aperture of f/2.8, which is a stop slower than this lens. The older EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM costs around £430 and sports an ultrasonic motor and internal focusing. The newer EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro sports weather sealed construction and image stabilisation along with the features found on the other two optics, but costs around £725.
