Why we recommend this

Weighing just 454g with a constant f/2.8 aperture and 5.5-stop optical stabilization, this is Canon’s smallest and lightest full-frame RF zoom for handheld low-light shooting. The leadscrew-type STM motor delivers fast, quiet autofocus, while weather-sealing and a 0.26x magnification offer durability and close-up versatility uncommon in wide zooms. This lens is best for landscape photographers and run-and-gun video shooters who need a stabilized, ultra-portable wide-angle zoom.

Canon L EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM 100mm

70.5 Landscape Score
100mmf/32Canon EFISWeather Sealed
Why we recommend this ▼

The 1:1 macro magnification and 300mm minimum focus distance make this L-series prime a true life-size close-up tool, with 5-stop image stabilization and weather sealing for handheld outdoor work. Its f/2.8 aperture and 9-blade diaphragm also deliver smooth bokeh for portraits, though it scores weakest there. Best for Canon EF shooters who need a dedicated macro lens for product, nature, or detail photography, not for portrait-first buyers.

Why we recommend this ▼

Combining a bright f/2 aperture with a 4-stop Optical Image Stabilizer, this 335g lens enables sharp handheld shooting in low light that unstabilized 35mm primes cannot match. Its ring-type USM motor delivers fast, near-silent autofocus and full-time manual override, making it equally capable for stills and video work. This lens is best for documentary photographers and videographers using full-frame Canon DSLRs who need a stabilized, walk-around wide-angle prime.
