The Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM is a medium-tele, full-format-compatible, lens for the Canon EF bayonet. The built-quality is solid, more or less you can say it fits to the EF 85mm f/1.8 and EF 28mm f/1.8. The lens hood is the same as for the EF 85mm f/1.8. The optical quality is more than solid, there are virtually no distortions, it is sharp from open aperture (compared with a EF-S 18-55mm or a EF 28-135mm) and even more when stopped down. In my opinion there are some chromatic aberrations with open aperture, but less than with the EF 85mm f/1.8. It is most useful for me with a full format camera, a bit too long with a APS-C - but that is for each individual consumer to decide.
I bought this lens for a specific project that involved some portrait work. It's a great lens that gives a nice depth of field and sharpness that has the edge over the Canon EF 50mm lens. Yes, it's a fast lens but the key is that it's a prime lens (no zoom) and the sharpness is more accurate than a zoom. It handles well and is great value. Buy one!

Amazing sharpness and quality. This lens leaves me surprised each time I take a pic with it. Much cheaper than 100mm 2.8 macro and delivers super quality macro (even without an extension) pics too.
