Canon RF 100mm f2.8: Canon Macro Lens with SA Control (Review)

Canon RF 100mm

I'm Vanessa Joy and today I want to share my review of the brand new Canon RF 100mm f2.8 macro lens. This lens is part of Canon's mirrorless line and it's definitely a lens to watch out for.

Recently, I had the chance to use the lens at a wedding and I must say I was impressed with its performance. The lens is lightweight and easy to carry around, which makes it a great option for photographers who are always on the move.

One of the most important things about this lens is the SA control, which is a unique feature of the lens. It allows you to control the bokeh, foreground, and background and produce stunning results. I tested out this feature and was blown away by the results. The SA control has different levels, and you can see the changes in the bokeh and the focus of the lens by adjusting it.

Apart from macro, this lens is also great for portraits. I used it to take portraits and the focus was fast and accurate. The lens also has image stabilization, which is a great feature to have when taking portraits.

If you're a professional photographer, you'll love the Fundy Album Builder software that I use in my business. It helps me double my profits by designing albums and wall art. If you're looking to increase your profits, then this software is a must-have. They're having their biggest sale of the year right now, so don't miss out on this opportunity.

In conclusion, I highly recommend the Canon RF 100mm f2.8 macro lens. It's a versatile lens that can be used for macro and portraits, and the SA control is a unique feature that sets it apart from other lenses. Whether you're a professional photographer or just starting out, this lens is a great option for you.
