A terrific choice for any photographer wanting an affordable yet versatile macro lens with great handling and image quality. Capture rock solid macro shots or detailed life-size portraits with ease and set your creativity free. Key benefits: The circular eight blade aperture helps to create attractive, even backgrounds when isolating subjects at wide apertures. Super Spectra coating keeps colour balance vibrant and accurate, while reducing unwanted flare and ghosting for sharper images than ever. The USM (ultrasonic motor) gives you rapid autofocus and virtually silent operation. There's also a mechanical override for absolute control of your shots. A focus limiter switch lets you increase your autofocus speed making quick-fire shots - even of distant subjects - easy. Ultra low dispersion design means better quality shots with higher contrast and more life-like colours. For use with EF mount Canon DSLR cameras
