I just received this lens yesterday and have taken a bunch with it so far. It is fantastic. The level of detail and vibrance of the photos are amazing. Well worth the price!

This is a somewhat unique lens for an ASP-C camera. 35mm (55mm equivalent on an ASP-C) it fills a gap I had for wanting something close to a 50mm lens. Not only does it very nice imaging, but also 1:1 macro capability too, along with a rather unique and adequate macro light that is adjustable. I love macro photography and though I have Canon's 100mm "L" lens, this little 35mm just works very nicely for those really close-up situations where I can't get light on the target without getting out the auxiliary lights, stands, or tripod supports. Now I can just press the lens button, and there's my tiny little subject all well illuminated.

I took an interest in this lens a short time ago as I wanted a focal length that was pretty near 50mm on my Canon 80D cropped-sensor camera. Most of the retailers offer this at pretty much the same price, including Amazon, but you have to be very careful because only a few of them are actually Canon-authorized dealers. Adorama not only IS a authorized dealer, but also offered this very nice 'bundle' for a very competitive price. I've come to know that Adorama really is the best purchase option and their after sale assistance is second to none!

I’m back to “real” photography only recently and am working up the learning curve. This lens does everything I hoped it would. The macro photo’s I’ve been taking are quite good. For now, this is the lens I’m carrying with me for catching detail and practicing settings. I like it a lot.

I am using this lens to photograph close-ups of my fly tying and I hope to photograph some stream side stone flies and caddises too. I believe the lens flash will help illuminate the subject. I plan to inter some of my photos in the contest here.

Received it and it automatically said it was faulty. Contacted Customer Service to return it and was told I would receive a E-mail on how to return the lense. And haven't received anything after a week so far

I always wanted to own a micro lens since I bought my Canon 7D back in 2012. This lens is great! It's small, affordable and the quality is excellent. I still don't know its full potential.. but I am excited to discover all the things its capable of. My macro journey starts with the Canon EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM Lens!

I have not tried the light feature on the lens yet but I am hoping that once I do I will give it five stars.

I do like this Marco lens, sharp with a built-in ring light, image stabilization too. Lens is very light in weight. Could use a needed filter ring that can fit over the light without causing a shadow. I’m a big fan of UV filters as protection.

As usual this lens has excellent Canon quality. However, I exchanged it and paid a little more for the highly-rated EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM which gets you closer to the subject matter. The ring light is an interesting idea but probably would not be used unless you are shooting macro in very low light. The IS is a must.

Precise little lens does a good job on macro shots. I love the led lights on the end of the lens. They can significantly alter the same shot.

After using this lens for only a couple of weeks (100 + photos for wide-angle landscape, nature macro, and some portraits, it suits my less than super-critical eye. That is not to say a super-critical eye would not appreciate this lens. I'm impressed with the (56mm on crop sensor) for portraits, although I have to say that the Canon EF-S 24mm STM (essentially 38mm) may become my favorite.

Very sharp at f8 and macro. Love the light, which you access by unscrewing the hood, not just by removing the lens cap. There is no other EF-S 35mm macro lens that Canon sells, so it has to have the light...the other reviewers just couldn't find it.

Opens a fantastic new world. So far it works well and I'm very happy with it. Since the effective focal length is close to 50 mm, it became my favorite lens. Thank you Canon. Peter

It was delivered today and after using it for a couple of hours I am hooked! Images are so sharp and macro shooting is a pure delight! Now my main lens on my 80D.

This lens shows another world in our own world.
By Amateur D.
I've had this lens for a couple of days, and I am amazed every time I use it! This lens opens up another universe in our own neighborhoods. Details of insects, spiders, and flowers is very sharp, with great color resolution. I don't know all the technical specifications of this lens; I'll leave that up to the professionals to write about. What I do know is that these images are superb. This is the first macro lens I've owned, and it's just as fun as I imagined. I cannot wait to see what...

Really Fun Lens!
By Jim M.
I'm still learning to use this lens, and I've never had a macro lens before, but this has been a really fun experience. I really like the F/2.8 aperture on this lens and it works well for portrait type photos as well as macro. The adjustable macro ring light is an awesome feature - two brightness settings, and you can light one side or the other, which comes in really handy - see coin pic. The lens does have an incredibly narrow depth of field up close and stopped down to F/2.8. As you ca...

Expand your lens options with the EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM and see the world in exquisite detail. Designed for APS-C DSLR cameras, the built-in Macro Lite gives you flexibility to use only half the light, the full light and more to help you achieve your desired effect. Capturing detailed shots is fun and easy with small subjects and everyday photography coming to life in high image quality thanks to the optical design and the prime focal length (35mm equivalent of 56mm). Whether you're taking your first dive into the intriguing world of macro photography or looking to expand your line-up of lenses, it's great to have extra options with the creativity and power that the EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM offers.
The EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM is capable of shooting up to life-size magnification for stunning detail. In a first for EF-S lenses, it features a built-in Macro Lite, giving you the opportunity to light your close-up shots how you want to. You can independently control the right and left lamps, as well as dial up the intensity (bright and dim) for incredible flexibility. The EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM is capable of shooting up to life-size magnification for stunning up-close details of even the smallest subjects, including food, insects, flowers, still life and anything you want to fill the frame.
With a large, bright maximum aperture of f/2.8 you can let in a lot of light, as well as create beautiful shallow depth of field effects. The 35mm* standard angle of view gives you an equivalent of 56mm on a full-frame camera, making the EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM a fantastic walk-around lens for snapshots, street photography, portraits and anything where lots of detail is a bonus.
* Equivalent to 56mm in 35mm format.
Image stabilization helps minimize blurring in an image that can occur even from small movements while taking handheld photos. Canon's Hybrid IS system helps minimize the effects of camera shake in the vertical plane (up and down), as well as when tilting or using the camera on an angle.
Beautiful photos and video are created courtesy of the refined optical configuration of 6 groups in 10 elements that uses one aspherical lens. The GMo (glass molded) aspheric lens is capable of delivering outstanding image quality across the entire scene, helping to ensure a high level of detail in your shots.
The EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM features a tapered design which allows you to get incredibly close to even small subjects, allowing you to fill the frame with beautiful, life-sized details. Its compact and lightweight body makes it easy to bring for shots on the go, and made possible thanks to clever construction that helps to reduce the lens' overall size and weight.
Keep your subjects in focus even when they're moving thanks to Movie Servo AF, which helps facilitate smooth video recording. The lead screw-type STM means you can focus quickly for both stills and video as well as staying nearly-silent - a key feature to help capture only the sounds you want in a video. In short, your movies are characterized by steady, near-quiet and beautiful focus transitions from one subject to another for a professional look and feel.
Thanks to its 7-blade, circular aperture, the EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM is capable of creating gorgeous, evocative out-of-focus areas and soft backgrounds. By delivering an incredible level of control over background blur, it helps you create intimacy and intensity in your photos and videos for impactful results.
The EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM offers complete manual control, even when AF is engaged, with a simple twist of the lens' focus ring. Additionally, full-time manual focus means it's easy to achieve and maintain focus manually, which can be especially handy when shooting video or composing still images on an SLR's screen.
