Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro

One of the best general purpose macro lenses, Canon’s 100mm Macro is small enough to hand hold and fast enough to work well without a flash. It also functions well as a superbly sharp short telephoto lens. A number of people use it as an alternative ‘long’ portrait lens.

Roger’s Take: If you’re new to macro shooting, this is the lens to start with. It focuses quickly for a macro lens and you can usually autofocus macro shots with it pretty well. Its sharp as a… well, sharp as a macro lens, and at f/2.8 it’s fast enough that you can get away without needing a dedicated macro flash most of the time.
