IRIX 150mm f/2.8 Macro 1:1
Why we recommend this ▼
A 150mm focal length and f/2.8 aperture enable life-size 1:1 macro with a 34.5cm working distance, backed by Neutrino coating and weather-sealed Dragonfly construction. The manual-focus design includes a focus lock and depth-of-field scale, and an 11-blade rounded diaphragm delivers smooth bokeh for subject isolation. This lens is best for Canon EF full-frame shooters doing deliberate macro and portrait fieldwork who need rugged, weather-resistant gear and full manual control.
