A 96mm equivalent, it handles excellently, with silent AF and velvety MF action. SQF shows somewhat compromised sharpness and contrast, however. Maximum magnification: 1:0.9.
Canon's first true macro EF-S (digital-only) lens, the new 60mm f/2.8 ($385, street) gives EOS Digital Rebel, 20D, and 30D owners the same magnifying power (1:1) and about the same field of view (96mm equivalent) as its 100mm f/2.8 EF macro gives full-frame shooters. But it's more than a half-pound lighter and $85 less expensive.
