    This lens is an excellent Macro lens. It is fast and sharp. It is also great in low light situations. Best to use manual focus though, because auto-focus takes longer than desired.

    Excellent Macro and Portrait Lens

    This is probably the best EF-S lens Canon makes. It is extremely sharp and with the f2.8 it provides excellent light and control of depth of field. On the bodies that use EF-S lenses it also gives the view of approximately 100mm. Great to portraits.

    Bought this lens just to take pictures of my reptiles. It works great, not the easiest to keep stable, but when you use a tripod or steady yourself well It is awesome.

    Great for Macros, not for Portraits

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I didn't get this from Best Buy. Lens is great for Macro work. I recently used this for some product shots of jewelery. While working between 6" to 3ft from the product and subject it focused very well and spot on. The color reproduction was good enough for my client and I. I tried using this for portraiture but found it too slow. Its a macro lens so its range of focus is much wider so in low light or regular light it often searches for the focus point through the entire range from infinity to near before heading back to your subject. You get a lot of awkward looks when people smile THAT long as you struggle to focus. However when yo do get it to focus it does produce great bokeh. Not recommended for those people looking to double dip and get that macro lens and something to use for portraiture. This is really a macro lens at heart.
