racketman Cream of the Crop  More info | Aug 25, 2007 13:25 | #1 I think 100 has a better range with a 25 tube added; closer for smaller bugs and still able to shoot flower groups. 20D ringflash
at infinity
at closest focus

Bill I tend to preset magnification and move whole camera in and out to achieve focus. 100 on its own certainly can AF quite quickly for a macro but at 1:1 AF cannot be relied on to nail eyes. Toby

Brian V. yep makes sense and the 1.6 crop cameras are definitely more useful with this lens. Larger sensors really need MPE65. Toby
