Product Description:

This telephoto macro lens is capable of focusing to life-size (1X) without attachments. Although it replaces the EF 100mm f/2.8 macro lens, it is a completely new design. It incorporates a ring-type USM giving quiet, high-speed autofocus. The full-time mechanical manual focus gives very smooth manual focusing. For the first time in a 1X focusing telephoto macro lens, inner focusing is used.The lens length remains constant and a long working distance of 149mm makes worrying about getting too close to the subject unnecessary. Also, during focusing the front ring does not rotate making use of front-mounting accessories like macro ring lites simple and effective. "Three-group floating" focusing construction uses three independently moving groups, which holds focusing-related changes of aberrations to a minimum giving excellent image quality all the way from infinity to life size.

Need I say more? I don't want to put it down. Great addition for any photographers bag.
Just buy it.2010-01-30
This is the lens that will turn your DSLR Rebel from a mommy-cam into something that takes new and interesting pictures.
I use this for nature close-ups...2010-01-06
...but it'll work for portraits. It's as sharp as the more expensive a 24-70L lens and its color rendition is nearly as good. I've loaned it to budding photographers who have used kit lenses only and they can't believe the image quality. Some of my best photos have come from this lens.
Awsome Lens!!2009-12-07
One of my favorites. I tried the 50 and 100mm macros before buying the 100 and I couldn't be happier. I take a lot of pics of flowers and bees and the extra reach of the 100mm allows me to get the good shot without scaring off the bees.

Why You Should Use A Mini DV Camcorder
Introduction The mini DV camcorder has many advantages to offer its users. If you enjoy your digital video camera you will also enjoy this. The mini DV camcorder is easier to take with you than the regular sized cameras such as the hi definition camcorder, or the hi-Res camcorder. The size of this camcorder is one of its big advantages.

Today, a radio can be as small as a wristwatch. Camcorders have also evolved in tec ...
