Comments about Canon 180mm F3.5 L USM Macro Lens:
This 180mm macro lens takes amazing pictures. The photo quality is the best. Subjects in the distance are brought into crystal clear focus in such up close detail you will swear the image was captured from a foot away. I'm a macro enthusiast and this is the first lens I have ever thought, "hmm ... maybe I'm too close." Love it!! Thanks!

Comments about Canon 180mm F3.5 L USM Macro Lens:
I have used the Canon EF 100mm F2.8 Macro for years. I recently purchased the Canon EF 180mm F3.5 macro. I had read conflicting reviews of this lens, so I was a little reluctant. After using it for a couple of weeks, I can say the following. It is a beautiful lens capable of outstanding results. Colors are brilliant and accurate. Focus is crisp. This lens is best suited for a tripod. With its longer focal length and shallow dof, it is more difficult to use hand held compared to the 100mm (which I expected). I have used this lens on a Canon 5DmkII and the results are spectacular. HD videos using this lens is beyond belief. I have used extension tubes and the images are amazing. I am very pleased with this lens and recommend it to anyone wanting to do serious macro work.
