Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro

I had the opportunity to shoot a friend’s Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro lens a couple of weeks ago and I’ve decided that was a mistake! Now I love the lens, but there is no room in the budget for his GAS attack.
I had to rearrange the candles after the first shot. One of the candles didn’t transmit the light through the wax very well.
I would have liked more time to work on the DOF, but I only had five minutes with the lens.

Great bokeh! I’ve been looking into getting this lens too. I’ve been wanting a dedicated macro lens and this one seems to be the one everyone suggests.

It's a really nice lens.
I see them available used from time to time on various photography sites and eBay so you might pick one up at a lower price if inclined to buy used.

I'm assuming that this wasnt the "L" lens?? If so, I've seen a few of them on sale on here on occasion. I have the L lens and love it. refurbished is also a thought.

It was the "L" lens. That's why there is no room in the budget.

The non-L is essentially equal in IQ, but does not have image stabilization. Cheaper too.
