Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM Interchangeable Lens Review
Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM Verdict
Those looking for a medium telephoto for portraiture will find this lens a pretty good buy due to the excellent sharpness it is capable of producing and the reasonable price tag.Unfortunately this lens' vulnerability to flare is an issue, especially if shooting in contra-lit situations and with strong light sources just outside of the frame. A lens hood would be the solution, but this is an optional extra.
The Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM lens offers very good sharpness and fast AF. |
