This compact medium telephoto lens sports a fast f/2 aperture, which will make this lens ideal for low light photography or creative use of shallow depth of field. It sports a silent ultrasonic focusing motor, internal focusing and costs around ￡380.

Purchased this lens for astrophotography. Color correction is good and stars are sharp to the corners when stopped a little.

Fast; Lightweight; Sharp across field

I use this for outdoor portraits since it allows me to create nice background blur with my full frame camera. If using a crop body, I'd suggest the 85 or even a 50mm lens.

Nice bokeh (background blur), quiet and fast focus; No problems after one year

You have to use a fast shutter speed or a tripod; A 100 mm lens needs a steady hold

I must admit that this is one of the sharpest and most compact tele lenses. It's quite solid, feels well, it's fast, it's crisp. At f2 you can get a really decent result in a low light as well but of course it's a little bit soft at f2.

Awesome lens, awesome price. Will definitely improve your macro pics.

Pros: Easily Interchangeable, Nice Bokeh, Lightweight, Fast / accurate auto-focus, Consistent Output Cons: Other thoughts: good product

I bought this lens not knowing what to expect. It was my first prime lens which I got myself and for some reason, I picked this 100mm over the nifty fifty. When I finally received it, it was a really good lens. But when I kept using it over the months, I realized that this was a great lens.

If you're looking for a canon portrait lens, but don't want to go to the extent of the L series, but don't want to compromise, then the Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM is for you. Offering stellar performance at a brilliant price point, this 100mm won't let you down.

I bought this one as a portrait lens capable of producing some kind of ′medium format look′, working with a very selective sharpness wide open. I wasn′t disappointed, this one is perfect for shooting people wide open and creating effects of totally blurred out-of-focus areas.

super sharp; fast; nice Bokeh

Приобрела этот объектив по акции Кэнон, что позволило сэкономить 6 тыс. руб. Пользуюсь уже полгода, очень довольна: цепкий фокус даже на полностью открытой дырке, отличное боке и стаб. Единственное: через несколько месяцев стала иногда греметь задняя линза (люфт или вибрация).
