RE-Canon EF_S 100 mm macro lens

[fairy bombs]

Hi

Just looking for some clarification re black 100 mm macro lens (see link) http://www.dwidigitalcameras.com.au/...p?idProduct=30

I am wanting to know if this lens is EF-S or EF,I was under the impression it was EF-S and could not
be used on full frames,but I read some where some one using it on a 5D2.I am interested in a Canon 100 mm macro,and know there is a L version.The one in the link has a really fine reputation.But wondering about going full frame one year,and if I have lots of EF-S lenses may not be a good thing.

So was thinking may be wait and get the L version,but if the one in the link fits both,well all the better!

It's an EF lens, NOT EF-s.

And yes, it's an excellent lens for full frame. It was around before DSLR's even existed.

Yep the 100 macro is and EF lens, which fits ALL Canon cameras

Thanks for confirming that,I had been lead to believe it was only EF-S by other people on other photography forums.

I have the lens and it is an EF lens. I can put it on the 5D (full frame, 1D MKIII (1.3 crop)or the 30D (1.6 crop) and it works fine on all. It's the very short DOF that I have trouble with.

For a none L lens it's as sharp as works a treat.
