p.1 #1Canon Macro Discovery
I have shot Canon all my life...especially macro..I stumbled onto this Canon EF-S lens and I thought I had all of them. WRONG!
This cheap little lens is working very well...EF-S35mm f2.8 Macro IS STM Built in "ring flash" and is so small!

Looks like it does a nice job.
Do you have a photo of the lens?

Very nice Dan'l...a lot of detail in the white petals,.an included ring light!?! Does it require additional batteries?

I will have to take one Larry..Let me see if it is on the web.

It is extremely small, has "IS" has a screw in lens hood that if left ON will deactivate to "ring lights" and the on board flash of the 90D.
I did NOT know that and spent a day searching to found this out.

Here is a photo...

No! Just make sure you remove the lens hood or it will NOT work. I found out the hard way....
Thanks!

Really good results Dan. I didn't know about it either. Can you use it on your FX bodies?

When I found this gem James, there was a warning.."Do NOT use on" any camera who's sensor is larger that an APS-C. It will break the mirror.

The above is a GREAT article about the lens.

I am finding it very useful for all photography.
