Over a year after it was announced, Chris and Jordan had the chance to play with the Canon RF 100mm F2.8 L IS Macro! Alongside the expected improvements in autofocus speed and optical performance, this lens feature Spherical Aberration Correction, which allows you to change the look of out-of-focus areas. Is this new lens worth the premium price?

I almost didn't buy mine after Christopher Frost talked about experiencing focus shift. I haven't had any issues whatsoever with mine.

I used SA control just few times, really depends on photo, effect you want to achieve. But I agree, no need to have that. And this is what I was able to get with R5 and RF 100/2.8 so far kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gbd8ddGFtanYimw.html

For a portrait/headshot shooter, being able to dial in a small, controllable amount of spherical aberration could save a lot of retouching time. I used to shoot corporate headshots with the DSLR version of the Canon 100 macro and had to put a lot of post-production effort into suppressing pores, shaving nicks, makeup flakes, lint, etc. because that lens was so brutally sharp - it would have been great to be able to take some of the edge off when needed.

The RF 100mm Macro is a great lens. I'm not a dedicated macro photographer but since I bought it I rarely bring my RF 70-200 f2.8 anymore. The 100mm is definitely sharper and the ability to shoot up close makes it a very versatile lens. After all the 100mm with the RF 15-35mm are my go to lenses for almost anything now. But I still haven't found a useful application for that SA control, haha.

Like you said Chris, this is ideal for those who want both macro and portrait capabilities. Thanks for the great review.

@lightningblender 2 жыл бұрын

R5 + RF100L is such a nice Combo. I have them both and they’re awesome. Macro video is so beautiful, and the AF is so fast that handheld shots are easily possible. The Hybrid IS really does a great deal of stabilisation compared to a 5DIII + EF100. The closer you get the more the effect weakens but it’s still at least a stop or two more than the DSLR combo. At first I worried about focus shift but I did not find any whatsoever. No matter what aperture or distance combination I tested. I will never ever sell or loan this lens to anyone. It’s hands down my favourite lens.

@tokyorose1123 2 жыл бұрын

My EF 100mm L was my all time favorite lens, and the last of my EF Glass since switching to Mirrorless. I finally let it go in favor of the 100mm RF. It’s funny because the EF lens on its own is actually quite a bit shorter than the RF. Until you put the adaptor on, and then they’re almost on par. The clincher for me was the quieter (substantially) and quicker autofocusing, and the 1.4x reach. Using it primarily for macro, that extra magnification without the need for extension tubes or diopters is extremely welcome. The SA control is something I don’t ever see myself using but it’s an absolutely incredible lens. As hard as it was to say goodbye to the EF, there has been no looking back and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.

I used (and still use) the EF 100 2.8 L for many years professionally (shooting commemorative coins) and still use it for video macro shooting when autofocus is needed. But the big difference in shooting happened when I bought the 135 TS-E macro where I can tilt and shift the focus how I need it. It can only 2:1 but with an adapter you also reach 1:1. But soon I will switch to an EOS R5C and I guess I will buy the new macro just because of fitting perfectly the system.

Well, the RF version costs only $100 more than the EF one now, and the native advantage shouldn’t be underestimated. Also, it’s clearly a cracking portrait lens. I’d have appreciated very much a showcase of SA control at lower settings - cranked to the max it’s obviously a bit cartoonish, but I can see a +- 1 setting being a big asset to save time in post, for subjects with rough skin, or to avoid moiré, for example. That kind of thing can be a big advantage in professional settings.

Besides the EF 100mm or a manual lens, I'd also suggest the Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L. It was the sharpest black lens when it came out and maybe still among the top 2-3 sharpest black EFs, and they're quite cheap used now. They give substantially more working distance, good to avoid scaring critters, and do AF silently albeit slowly. The images were always really nice and despite being very picky, I never was disappointed. I used it for all my internet auction product photos too, despite having 14 other lenses. I'm buying the RF100 but mainly out of boredom, and in part because the fast AF sounds nice to have.

Also I shoot flowers placing my camera on the ground quite often, and it works quite well.

I'm interested in this lens I'll admit. I feel torn though budget-wise. Because I feel like for portraits the Sigma 105mm f/1.4 would be great, although it's $300 ($400+ with adapter) than the Canon RF and it has a faster aperture. I just can't shake the versatility of such a great performing lens wide open, against flare, macro capability and lower weight compared to that Sigma lens. Or should I just wait until Canon makes their own version that has a faster aperture, better coatings and much less weight than Sigma's offering? Although it might cost more than $2,200+ given the price trend.

@benjaminmesa1089 2 жыл бұрын

So, my thinking is, the Lawoa is a great little lens, but lacks any form of stabilization, and the designs is the opposite of airtight. I have had more than a few times where the stabilizer really made a difference. The lens is also quite a bit sharper wide open than the EF version. The AF is also a good bit faster. Edit: Wanted to mention that I feel the focus shift issue is almost non-existent. The only people that would notice it are the most hardcore pixel-peepers. For macro work, you are advised to work with manual focus anyways, so focus shift shouldn't make any difference, unless for some reason you aren't also adjusting the focus. I can't imagine that being a thing. Some very famous and very good lenses have focus shift.

@jameskeener7251 2 жыл бұрын

A bit in between. Macro focusing is difficult for me. Being able to focus by bringing a couple of arrowheads together could help a lot. But. Since we are judged by the sophistication of our gear, it would be burdensome to carry the baggage of the SA ring. I have had two WTF experiences when seeing reviews of Canon RF lenses: the SA ring AND not being able to use telextenders on the RF 70-200 f/2.8.

I really like macro lenses, they're very fun to use, but there are some reasons that pull me back. I like RF lens because of the fast auto focus, accurate, sharp and closer 1.4x aspect ratio. But issues are way more than pro. weight, size, focus breathing, aperture shift and a weirdo control SA ring. I wish canon keep it simple like ef version will be a great lens, not to mention that will keep the price cheaper as well. If that SA ring changes bokeh to smoother like RF 85mm F1.2 DS, I will sacrifice for that, but it's not.

@TomJones-tx7pb 2 жыл бұрын

To me, the SA ring looks like a gimmick in an attempt to make a sharp macro lens able to do soft portraiture. I would rather not have that feature, which does not seem to work that well. If I am to pay for an extra feature, I'd rather have the lens be good for video. The 1.4x looks like it is achieved by allowing the lens to extend out without using extension tubes.

I snap on a Raynox when I need closer focus than 1.4X.

I would like to see someone comment on a reason that Canon put this lens on a very good sale last winter (double the discount of other lenses) OTHER than the fact that the focus shift makes the lens worthless at super close distances and the SA affects the in focus parts of the image as much as the bokeh. If I wanted a poor quality, soft focus lens, there are many available for a fraction of the price. Canon knows and denies the problems with this lens. To me, that is worse than having the problem in the first place. You got my 'like' for mentioning the Laowa option. 99% of people will not want a totally manual lens but they are sharp.

Honestly I can't see the point of this lens. Why offering this in 2022 when all laowa stuff is cheaper, 2x magnification and outrageously sharp. Are camera manufacturers blind to not see what most serious macrophotographers are using today? Imo, the laowa 100mm is definitely the king to dethrone today and i wish big brands start to realize that.

I've been using the 85mm f/5.6 2:1 on my Nikon Z. 🌹🌻🐞🦋

@@neffknows1 I own the 100, 60, 25 and I got the 85mm two weeks ago for my travel to usa. it's tiny, super light and super sharp. However it's quite tricky to use a flash+diffuser with this lens because of the ridiculous small size ahah. I will do and unboxing/review/demo video of the 85mm when I will be back home.
