Here comes the EFS-60mm f2.8 Macro Lens

Well, it has been quite some time that I have not posted anything about photography stuff.
Okay! I bought a macro lens recently. This lens is meant for non-full frame camera, such as Canon 350D, 400D, 30D, 40D and so on.
I did not go for EF-100mm because the focal length 100mm is a bit too long and very tight cropped for general purpose use other than close-up photography. With 60mm, I can use it for close-up shot as well as portrait shot. Hence, it kills 2 birds with 1 stone. Furthermore, the image results were all tack sharp. After playing a while, I outline with the following pros and cons:
Pros
- Sharp image
- Lightweight as compared to 100mm
- Fast focusing speed
- f2.8 constant aperture
- Excellent bokeh
- Good for portrait and flower and big insect close-up
Cons
- A bit AF hunting on less contrast object and low light
- Only supports 1.6x crop factor camera
- Requires a tripod to obtain sharp images
- Limited working distance on smaller insect close-up as compared to 100mm
Check this out!
