The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM lens will focus over the full range from infinity down to life size (1:1 reproduction ratio). This lens will impress any serious photographer with its combination of versatility, image quality and superb handling. A high-performance ring type Ultrasonic Motor provides fast and silent AF throughout its focus range, and even more significantly, allows full-time manual focusing permitting the close-up or macro shooter to instantly override the AF whenever necessary.
Keep your lens cap securely attached to your lens with the convenient, simple-to-use CapKeeper. Never lose a lens cap again!
This Vivitar UV Filter is a multi-purpose, fine-weather filter that is designed to optimize your photography experience. UV filters block out unwanted ultraviolet light and prevents the UV “fogging/haze” effect, which can result in inaccurate color and lower the apparent sharpness. This filter is also ideal for protecting your valuable lens from scratches and dust, and it can be kept on the lens at all times.
The Precision Design ET-67B Lens Hood is designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of the lens.
This 6-piece cleaning kit contains everything you’ll ever need to properly clean your lenses, including a Hurricane Air Blower, Lens Cleaning Tissues, Lens Cloth, Lens Cleaning Liquid, Brush and Cotton Swabs.

Digital SLR. Exposure compensation is often required with cameras
other than the EOS-1 Series.

Not every photographer is a professional. Of this I am guilty.
But I love my Canon EOS 30D. And, while it is not a professional digital SLR camera, I have taken some really great pictures with it. I have even won some awards on different websites as “picture of the day”.
Looking for lenses for my Canon dslr led me to investigate the Canon EF-S macro lens selection. I find that EF-S lenses work really well, simply because they are made specifically for my kind of camera. If you own a Canon Rebel, any model, or any of the XXD Canon cameras, you can use these special lenses on your camera.
The technology has been specifically geared toward cameras with a APS-C sensor (that’s the sensor that is in the cameras just listed).
To my surprise, there is only one Canon EF-S macro lens available. It is the 60mm f/2.8 USM lens, and it is a dedicated macro lens. You can take photos of really small objects, bugs, flowers, and all manner of little things.
Close-up photography is the reason I actually moved from a point and shoot camera to my first Canon Rebel.
So, finding a macro lens for my Rebel was on my high priority list. I looked at the whole lineup of lenses, some of which cost as much as the camera itself… too much for my budget.
I settled on the Canon EF-S 60mm lens after reading the reviews and user comments about it.
I have never been sorry about that choice. I consider this lens my best one, not just because of the macro photos it produces, but also because it handles other types of images well, too. For instance, when I want to take a portrait of one of the grandkids, the Canon EF-S macro lens is my choice. It is the perfect focal length to get professional type portraits.
I fool around with product shots in my garage where I set up a very crude lightbox, and the 60mm macro is my lens for that, too.
It does not handle landscapes very well, and trips to the zoo find a different lens on my Canon DSLR, but in all, I find that the Canon EF-S macro lens handles most of my heavy work with great results.
In addition, if I plan to upgrade to a newer camera (I have my eye on a Canon 7D, and negotiations with my wife have begun), the EF-S lenses will do just fine.
As a close-up photography fan, I found that the Canon 60mm has really done the job nicely. It has an excellent wide aperture of f/2.8 to provide fast shutter speeds for those quick-moving butterflies. It also produces a nice blurred background, the goal of a decent close-up shot. The USM (ultra sonic motor) gives quick focus, again, nailing the bug shots with a pretty good “keeper” rate.
I would not hesitate to recommend a Canon EF-S macro 60mm lens to any Canon camera owner. It is an awesome lens. Go to http://www.canoneoslenses.org/macro-canon-lens/ for a better look.

Canon’s Lens lineup may be a little daunting for any new SLR or DSLR camera owner. The primary reason for this is probably the fact that Canon offers more than 60 interchangeable lenses for its series of SLR and DSLR cameras. This lens line-up includes Primes, Zooms, Tilt & Shifts, Macros, Wide Lenses, Telephoto Lenses and Super Telephoto Lenses.
Although Canon manufactures many types of lenses, it’s EF lineup is the most popular as these lenses with the EF mount fit all of Canon’s SLR and DSLR cameras. In addition to this, Canon also manufactures the EF-S lens lineup that fits on Canon’s range of consumer cameras with APS-C CMOS sensors such as the Rebel series. The EF-S lenses can only be used on the APS-C cameras, but these cameras can also use the normal EF Lenses. Every Canon EF lens can be classified in one of the following classes:
Prime (fixed) lenses
Ultra Wide – Primes usually with a focal length of 20mm or less
such as the EF14mm f/2.8L II USM. Used primarily for landscapes.
Wide – Primes between 20 and 50mm like the EF35mm f/1.4L USM.
Used primarily for landscapes. Standard & Medium Telephoto –
Primes between 50 and 100mm like the brilliant EF85mm F1.2L II
USM. Great for portraits. Telephoto – Primes between 100 and
300mm like the EF300mm f/2.8L IS USM. Usually used for wildlife
and sports photography. Super Telephoto – Primes of 400mm and
more like the EF600mm f/4L IS USM, Used for Bird, sports &
wildlife photography.
Zoom (adjustable) Lenses
Wide Zoom – Zooms that start between 16 and 22mm of focal length
like the EF17-40mm f/4L USM. Useful for landscapes &
Weddings. Standard Zoom – Zooms that start between 24 and 28mm on
the wide end and a reach between 70 and 200mm, like the
EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM. Useful for Weddings & Portraits.
Telephoto Zoom – Zooms that start at 28mm at the wide end with a
reach of between 70 and 300mm, like the popular EF70-200mm f/2.8L
IS USM. Used for a wide variety of applications such as weddings,
wildlife, bird & street photography.
EF-S Lenses
Lenses with a special mount that can only be used with Canon’s
APS-C sensor cameras, such as the Rebel series. Cameras with the
APS-C sensore has a 1.6x multiplying effect on normal EF lenses,
therefore the need for lenses like the EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM
which is useful for landscape photography with the Rebel series.
Macro Lenses
Lenses used for macro photography, such as the EF180mm f/3.5L
Macro USM.
Tilt & Shift Lenses
Lenses like the TS-E24mm f/3.5L are primarily used for
architecture photography.In each of the classes listed above,
except for the EF-S class, special high quality “L” lenses can be
found. These lenses are made of special materials, are usually
weather proof, heavy and produce images of stunning sharpness and
quality.
