I’ve been looking and asking around a lot for the right macro lens for my Canon XSi.
I know there may be certain types of macro lenses? (i.e. f/2.8, 60 mm…)
That’s when I get confused when searching for the right lens for my camera.
I want the best quality, but maybe not the most expensive.
Any suggestions, or clarifications would be much appreciated!
Thanks so much!

Hey,
A real macro lens has 1:1 ratio. All Canons have it, except for the 50mm Macro which is 1:2, which doesn’t magnify your object as much as 1:1 macro lenses do.
Macro lenses have amazing quality and are sharp! These are the finest lenses available!
Here’s a post called ‘Buying a Macro Lens for Canon – http://www.the-dslr-photographer.com/2010/02/buying-macro-lens.html
Good luck.
What’s your budget?
- EF 50mm f/2.5, $260
- EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM, $422
- EF 100mm f/2.8 USM, $519
- EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM, $944
Simply get the lens that fits in your budget. FYI, the 50mm and 60mm lenses would make for good portrait lenses on your camera as well.
The best Canon macro lens is Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L but if you want cheaper price then Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 or Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 are great choice.
