## Description

Engineered specifically for full-frame EOS R series cameras, the RF100mm F2.8 L MACRO IS USM is the world’s first* medium telephoto macro lens delivering close-up imagery at up to 1.4x magnification with autofocus. Featuring a fixed 100mm focal length, a bright f/2.8 maximum aperture for blurred backgrounds and low light shooting, fast, highly-precise AF, and an SA (spherical aberration) Control Ring, the RF100mm F2.8 L MACRO IS USM lens elevates the look of portraits and macro shots with the option of creating dreamlike or romantic images with a soft focus look. With strong built-in optical image stabilization and Canon’s Hybrid IS system, close-up shooting and video are sharp and stable. Using the FLM, imagemakers can expect to see stunning results that can enhance their creative/artistic vision.

Review: Excellent improvement over the EF 100mm Macro - Almost all of my macro shots are taken hand held, so I really like the IS of this lens. Combine that with the IBIS of the R5 and R6 and you get a winning combination. I've tried the Spherical Aberration (SA) ring, and it works ok, but prefer to do that in post, if need be, so I have it locked on "0". Once you get the hang of it, it could save you a bit of editing in post if you like to mess with that, so I think it is a nice feature. I'm just not big on doing a lot of post editing, particularly messing with bokeh. I like the control ring of the new RF lenses and have it programmed so I can select focus points. It focuses quickly and I don't think it's entirely the cameras because I have the EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Macro and ring adapter, so Canon has improved on the USM. IQ is similar to the EF version, but I have to give the edge to the RF (I'm a pixel peeper), I have taken enough shots with both the EF and RF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM glass on the R5 to make a fair comparison. As you may know, all lenses have a "sweet spot". Although it has very good IQ wide open (f/2.8), but take it up a few stops, and IQ is amazing. I've found f/8+/- to f/16 to be a good range, although I haven't needed to take it higher than f/16 to get my shots. The wasp face was taken at f/16, 1/500th. The RF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Macro is a nice improvement of the EF version, IMO, and is a must have if you like to shoot macro, even occasionally, on your new R series camera. Yes, it is a bit expensive, but worth every penny. It's really hard to tell from images posted here just how good they are, but I will post some anyway. The shots are cropped, maybe 50%, mainly because the subjects are so tiny and even at 1.4:1, they are small on the R5 sensor. The flower with the yellow disk is smaller than a dime and is a 40 shot "focus stack" taken using the EOS R6 on a tripod. The other flowers are 1/4"+/-. The wasps are 1/2", if that. Except for the "focus stacked" image, the rest are "hand held" and I used high ISO settings so I could freeze action and to keep my aperture in the "sweet spot". The wind was blowing the flowers and the insects were constantly moving.
Review: Worth it - Recieved the package in good condition. The seller doesn't seem to send faulty or bad product, as I was suspecting looking at the review of him. Time to put the lens to test.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth it
*by N***R on 8 June 2025*

Recieved the package in good condition. The seller doesn't seem to send faulty or bad product, as I was suspecting looking at the review of him. Time to put the lens to test.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clarity is awesome
*by E***S on 3 July 2023*

I mainly use this for macro work. Could not be happier. Crisp, clear images with beautiful bokeh. Also works extremely well as a prime lens with Clarity well off into the distance Only gripe is that auto focus doesn’t work so well when close up- no big deal, switch to manual If you are on the fence, buy it!
