Macro Lens

With Canon you have 3 options. I would recommend the Canon EF100mm (option 2) at approximately £480, this is the lens that I have used for many years and image quality is superb. If you want a smaller, lighter Macro lens then Option 3, the 60mm is a good option, but be aware it is not so easy to use for extreme close-ups due to its reduced working distance compared to the Canon 100mm options. Option 1, the 100mm L lens is another superb lens, however a number of features of this lens such as Image Stabilsation are not normally required for dental photography images.

Another excellent alternative, especially given the expense of the Canon lens is the Sigma Lens (option 4).

Option 1 | The Canon 100mm Macro L (Luxury) Lens

Option 2 | The Canon 100mm Lens

Option 3 | The Canon 60mm Lens

Option 4 | The Sigma 105mm Lens
