Well, I don't know about prices in the UK, but the one I use is a Sigma 105 mm. Then there's the Canon 100 mm and Tamron 90 mm. There are also shorter and longer macro lenses, depending on what your preferences are, what subjects you intend to work with most etc. I suggest you do a google search for those lenses, there are lots of reviews in photography forums and also some side-by-side comparisons.

I've only worked with the Sigma 105 so far, so my experience is pretty limited. I've had the lens for almost 3 years now I think and i'm quite satisfied with it. Autofocus is sometimes very slow, but for macro I use manual most of the time anyway. It's my fav lens - on the camera most of the time. Also nice for zoo photography and portraits, if you have enough room.

Hope that helps! And thanks for the comment!

Thanks again.

SamsWorld In reply to SamsWorld [2007-11-19 18:24:12 +0000 UTC]

Hey again mate.

I am a bit worried about buying this lense as, when i ask if it comes with a canon mount they just answer "i dont know".

I am now considering buying Canon EF 100mm 100 f/2.8 F2.8 Macro USM Lens.

Will this lense definatly fit my Canon Eos 350D? its not a Rebel model.

Thanks for your help as the people i have asked this question to just give me a crap answer.

Many thanks for your help.

Regards Sam

Also das ist wirklich klasse geworden!
(Der Käfer ist ja so klein, hast Du beim Fotografieren überhaupt noch geatmet? )

Well done

Bin ich ja beruhigt. Der Kommentar sollte eigentlich unter das Bild - und ich war schon verwirrt, als da nichts auftauchte
Bis her hat es auch eigentlich immer(die paar Mal) geklappt.

Manchmal reagiert DA auch mit etwas Verzögerung, kann sein, dass es nicht gleich aufscheint.

Das ist wieder genau so ein Foto von der Sorte, wie ich sie auch so gern machen möchte. Total schön, und so klar vom Hintergrund abgesetzt. Ich brauch jetzt echt mal ne gescheite Kamera.

Schafft man mit einer kompakten, noch dazu, wenn man womöglich die Blende nicht manuell einstellen kann, leider kaum.
Was hast du denn jetzt für eine Kamera?

I had to save money for quite some time before I was able to buy one. And in the meantime, they've gotten a bit less expensive too.

Technisch absolut einwandfrei und auch wieder recht beeindruckend, wie nah du da dran warst. Sonst find ich's aber bissl langweilig, um ehrlich zu sein. Hätt's vielleicht mehr gecropped, weil ich glaub es sind vor allem die großen, "leeren" Flächen, die hier dem Bild einiges an Spannung nehmen.

marble911 In reply to BlackCore-RaiseHell [2005-06-28 14:57:05 +0000 UTC]

Danke für die konstruktive Kritik.
Mir hat das saftige, schön verschwommene Grün rundherum ganz gut gefallen und wollte dem Käfer auch Raum geben, damit er nicht so "eingekastelt" ist.

marble911 In reply to the-darksiren [2005-06-17 10:29:13 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a lot.
I experimented with this one - usually I try to get a depth of field as large as possible so that all relevant detail is sharp (more science than art ) but this time I made an exception.
