Canon EF 100mm f/2.8

The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM offers a true macro magnification ratio of 1:1, meaning the object you are photographing in real life is the same size as on your camera sensor. This versatile L-series lens gives great results in portrait work and handheld movie-making, thanks to its ability to achieve a shallow depth of field with beautiful bokeh, along with built-in Hybrid Image Stabilisation and lightweight design.

Unlike traditional Image Stabilisers, the Hybrid Image Stabiliser in this lens counters both angular shake and lateral shift-shake, which are especially pronounced during extreme close-up photography. This allows for sharp, stable images even when shooting handheld at high magnifications. 

Part of Canon’s prestigious range of L-series lenses, the EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM is engineered from the highest quality materials and is weather sealed to make it robust enough for shooting in all conditions. This lens is a great option for portraits because of the Ultra-Low Dispersion lens element to minimise chromatic aberration and deliver sharp, clear images. The 9-blade circular aperture, combined with the f/2.8 aperture, creates exceptional bokeh, further enhancing the lens ability to separate subjects from the background and draw attention to the details you want to highlight.
