Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS Macro - Incredible lens!

Jason Hermann

I was trying to get some bugs today of any kind and ended up finding this guy I used the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM Lens and 68mm of Kenko extension tubes. I also used a Sigma EM-140 DG Macro Ringlight for lighting assistance. Due to the incredible shallow depth of field, I had to focus stack this photo and I ended up using 4 frames total. After that I did some sharpening and cropping in Lightroom 3.



Here’s what my camera looked like all loaded up:



Canon 5D Mark II, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS, Sigma EM-140 DG Macro Ring*light Flash, 68mm Kenko Extension Tubes
