These were done with the 180. Having almost 10" between the front of the lens and a macro subject is really useful. Here are some:

Of course it is big and heavy.

Over in "House of Canon" someone was offering one for sale recently.

Thanks Dan:
I picked up the 180 Canon 3.5 i had the canon 100 is usm and found something was not right with that lens everytime i would auto focus it would just stop took the shot and everything was blurred...i returned it and got the 180 i really dont use the IS..having said that..i can truly say this feels like you are holding a true lens..very sharp all round..
