Canon EF 180mm F3.5L


When I first saw the Canon EF 180mm F3.5L macro lens at the Photo Malaysia member's
night some time back, I never gave it a second look.I wasn't even interested back then and realised that when I delved deeper into macro
photography, there are subjects that can be photographed only from a safe distance.Whether it works on bees, there's only one way to find out.The Canon EF 180mm F3.5L macro lens is also one of the heaviest around weighing in at
1.09kgs.And word has it that the background blur on this baby is much better than lenses that are shorter in focal length.To rub salt into the wound, the EF 180mm F3.5L lens carries a street price of RM6.25K, making it one of the most expensive close-up lens around.
This is also an older lens without Image Stabilization or the new Hybrid Image Stabilization technology.
