Well, I loved the Tamron because it had Macro capability. But I was really impressed when I put the Canon glass on. My next item on the list is one you already have, the Canon 100 Macro, by the way, how do you like yours? Oh and also, Thanks very much for the comments you posted in my Gallery, Yours is impressive as well.

I like the 100 mm Macro lens, although with 65 mm of extension tubes your working distance is about 6 inches. You may be use to a much greater worker distance such as the Tamron gave you. It is a extremely sharp lens, although it is heavy, my setup takes a major effort to take into the field. I have been spending more time with my telephoto and since the bird are in abundance during the winter, I have a ready supply of subjects. I will get back to macro work this Spring when the beasts come back.
