Canon Macro lens-50mm-F/2.5-Canon EF

The Canon Macro lens-50mm-F/2.5-Canon EF's nine-element design features a floating optical system, which ensures top-notch performance even at close focusing distances. Light and compact, it functions beautifully as a general-purpose normal lens and actually increases working distance - very desireable in close-up shooting.
Canon Macro lens-50mm-F/2.5-Canon EF Overview
Want to bring small things into full-sized view? Turn to the Canon EF 50mm f/2.5 compact macro lens, which can uncover detail that would otherwise be impossible to detect by the naked eye. Ideal for shooting extremely minute subjects such as insects or the petals of a small flower, the lens offers a nine-element design and a floating optical system that focuses down from infinity to one-half life size (0.5x). Despite these macro optics, however, the lens also functions beautifully as a general-purpose normal lens. And should you want to focus down to life size (1:1), you can add an optional Life Size Converter EF to increase the working distance--a valuable feature in close-up shooting. Other details include a 46-degree diagonal angle of view, a 0.8-foot close focusing distance, and a one-year warranty.

Canon Macro lens-50mm-F/2.5-Canon EF user reviews
""I write and photograph "How To" books on a myraid of subjects. Everything from Automotive Electrical Repairs to Cookbooks. I've used it on one Annual Report to shoot the company's products and executives. I'm very satisfied with this lens. I use manual focus about 75% of the time in the studio and only use AF on portraits. "

"Using it for general use and macros, of course. Small and VERY sharp. Just a bit noisy, but it worths every cent !"
