    Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX Macro Summary
    The Sigma 105mm Macro lens has been among the most popular lenses here since PhotographyREVIEW.com was founded, in 1999. This lens is a proven macro performer and the newest, "DG" version, is designed specifically for digital SLRs.

    Justin says: "This lens far exceeded my expectations in every way! You can get incredibly sharp detail of the smallest insects and flowers. I see things in the photos that I couldn't even see with my naked eye."

    Out-of-production Canon manual focus lens. There were at least three versions of this lens made before the Canon FD system was retired. The Canon 200mm f/2.8 FD manual focus lens is a professional quality, solid lens that will produce high quality images even at its maximum aperture.

    The use of an aspherical element eliminates the flare typically found in lenses with large maximum apertures. Contrast and other factors important in image quality are well corrected when the lens is used at full aperture. Use of the Floating System helps to maintain image quality from infinity to 0
