The EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM lens is a prime lens made by Canon Inc. It is of the EF lens mount that fits the EOS camera system. There are three versions, the original, a second that adds a USM autofocus motor, and a recently released L series version that incorporates Image Stabilization (IS).
It is a macro lens, meaning that it is capable of reproducing an object the size of the image sensor, known as 1:1 magnification. Despite the macro designation, the lens can focus to infinity like regular lenses. As such, it is appropriate for use as a portrait lens.
This lens can be used with an extension tube, which increases the maximum magnification to 1.19x (EF 12 II) or 1.39x (EF 25 II). In these cases, focusing at infinity is sacrificed, with maximum distance reduced to 1002mm (3.3 ft) and 606mm (2.0 ft) respectively.[1]
The EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens is the second macro lens in the Canon L series. It incorporates IS, improved build quality, weather sealing, and a new lens configuration resulting in improved MTF plots. This is the first lens on the market to incorporate Canon's new Hybrid Image Stabilization Technology. Hybrid IS effectively compensates for both angular and shift camera shake during close-up shooting.
This lens requires the Macro Lite Adapter 67 to be used with the MR-14EX and MT-24EX macro flashes.[2][3]
