Hi Bob -


The 100L F2.8 IS Macro lens is awesome! You would not regret purchasing it! I have a variety of different lenses and this is definitely one of my favorites. I won't repeat what everyone has already said about it but just want to stress how versatile of a lens it is. Also, macro photography, whether you are photographing plants, insects or whatever itis just plainfun!To get up close to insects and observe them is challenging and very interesting ...it's just alot cooler than I imagined it would be!

Good luck with your decision!
