Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Macro Lens with Image Stabilization for EOS DSLR Cameras (Black) - New

Professional L-Series Macro Excellence

The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM represents a milestone in macro photography as the first mid-telephoto macro lens in Canon's prestigious L-series to incorporate Hybrid Image Stabilization. This groundbreaking technology compensates for both angular and shift camera shake, delivering up to 4 stops of stabilization during handheld close-up work. With a maximum aperture of f/2.8 and optical construction of 15 elements in 12 groups, this lens produces stunning sharpness and beautiful bokeh from minimum focus distance of 0.99 feet to infinity. The 67mm filter thread accepts standard accessories while the robust build quality ensures reliability in demanding shooting conditions.

Life-Size Magnification Without Compromise

Achieve true 1:1 life-size reproduction without external adapters or accessories. The inner focusing system maintains consistent lens length during focus operations, while the Ultrasonic Motor (USM) delivers near-silent, rapid autofocus with full-time manual override. The 100mm focal length provides comfortable working distance from subjects, ideal for insects, flowers, jewelry, and product documentation. The 23.4-degree diagonal angle of view frames subjects beautifully while the circular 9-blade diaphragm creates smooth, natural background blur that isolates your subject.

Versatile Beyond Macro

While engineered for close-up work, this lens excels at portraiture, concert photography, and nature documentation. The short telephoto focal length flatters facial features and provides pleasing perspective compression. The f/2.8 maximum aperture enables low-light shooting and selective focus control across diverse photographic genres. Compatible with all Canon EOS DSLR bodies featuring EF mount, this lens integrates seamlessly with your existing system while the weather-sealed construction protects internal elements from dust and moisture.

Optical Engineering at Its Finest

Canon's L-series designation guarantees professional-grade optical performance. The 12-group, 15-element formula includes specialized glass types that minimize chromatic aberrations and maximize contrast. Inner focusing preserves optical balance throughout the focus range, maintaining image quality from 0.3 meters to infinity. The lens ships with the ET-73 lens hood to reduce flare and protect the front element. At 625 grams, the lens balances beautifully on both full-frame and APS-C sensor cameras, providing equivalent 160mm field of view on crop-sensor bodies.
