Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM

Technical Specification | Latest Prices

Autofocus lens for macro photography up to life-size (1x) magnification

Medium telephoto lens with a macro feature for 1x magnification. Fluctuations in spherical aberrations caused by focusing are suppressed, and high-quality images are obtained at all focusing distances. With eight aperture blades, good background blur is obtained even when the aperture is decreased by one or two stops. A focusing limiter which limits the magnification to 0.25x is built-in.

KEY FEATURES

• Entirely new optically, with a three-group floating system for exceptional close-up performance.

• The first lens in its class to feature innner focusing. The lens length never changes, even at life size!

• A secondary diaphragm blocks stray light at f/2.8, increasing contrast when shooting wide-open.

• Ultrasonic Motor provides outstanding AF speed at all focusing distances.

• Wide manual focusing ring with smooth action, and full-time manual focus even in AF mode.
