Canon EF 180mm Macro f/3.5L USM

 

The EF 180mm Macro f/3.5L is a sharp telephoto macro lens for Canon D-SLRs. It supports 1:1 magnification, but lacks image stabilization.

Very sharp. 1:1 magnification. Includes hood and tripod collar.

Expensive. Lacks image stabilization.

Macro

 

Of course, macro is always with tripod or also with some focus adjuster. When this is heald steadily, images come up amazing. Again, you should balance depth of field with speed according to what the light allows!

Superior build quality , Super-sharp images

Best lens in my kit bag.

 

Bought this as an upgrade from the 100mm, wish I'd done it long ago. Worth every penny.
