Got my macro lens today :D First off, this thing is alot bigger than the 100 macro, its bigger than the 200 F/2.8L as well. There is going to be a steep learning curve here, but I am up for the challenge. Here are the first shots with the 180L. My wife's wedding ring, let me know what you think, now that I look at them, I should have centered them a little better
