Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L Macro

Its being returned because it is heavy, the AF/MF switch is very stiff and when attached to a R5 mk2 body with battery grip and flash the combination is far too heavy for hand held macro.

Harvey Norman Team were helpful as always. Such a good lens... Bought this Canon RF 100mm 2.8 Macro for Macro photography. It does macro very well but also great for portrait.

Really pleased with the Magnification, clarity and sharpness.

I've wanted a macro lens for years, but always struggled to justify it, given it's quite niche usage. (Yes it does make a nice portrait lens, however it's at the longer end of the focal length for that, and again quite specific to shooting facial portraits) Anyway, I'm happy I made the investment, it's quick and sharp like nothing else. The AF coupled with an R6 MK2 is lightning fast, really impressed. Is it cheap, no... Is anything cheap nowadays, definitely no, should that be a justification for high pricing, also no... But, it's a really nice quality lens, wirh my only gripe being that canon needs to get their act together and supply a decent protective case with it. If you buy a Sigma lens, you get a protective soft case, if you buy a canon lens you get a drawstring bag... That's not on.

I am very amateur to photography. I bought this lens for my R8 to take pictures of my baby and for interesting pictures approached from a as close up angle. Still learning how to use the settings for macro but so far the results I am getting is amazing. Of close like every raw image it does need final touches on the computer. If you’re an advanced photographer and have the money this is definitely one of a must to have lens in your arsenal
