Well you are not going to see CA issues on crop due to the fact that crop APS C sensor doesn't use full image circle of EF mount lens. I didn't say it's not great on crop body; just a tad tight as...

Amazon is almost always the best choice but since they gave up their fight on taxes in exchange for jobs and other things, there possible could be better options. I have been a customer for 20 years....

Great lens for FF, little tight indoors and amazing fast focus. Only my 135L can beat the focus speed. Just some CA issues on FF, which can be easily corrected via DPP.

Well, a macro lens has the ability to focus really close to an object, allowing you to magnify it to seemingly life size; while this lens won't allow you to get as close. More specifically, the 60mm...
