New to the forum, had a 50D for a few years but still very much an amateur photographer.

Just thought I'd share some of my own moon shots taken with this lens...

The AF on this lens doesn't do too bad a job of keeping up at all (shot w/50D):

I have, for some time now, considered this lense. I have waded through most of what is here and am wondering about the "MACRO" side of this lense - good or bad? And, lastly, will this lense work on a 5D III or the present 5DII?

I haven't every used this lens for Macro work but it is an EF lens and does work on all modern Canon bodies. Here are some of mine with a 5D2 from earlier in this thread...

You just can't use EF-S lenses on the full-frame bodies.
