Home in on close-up subjects with the Canon EF mount Rokinon 100mm f/2.8 Macro Lens for Canonfrom Rokinon, which affords life-size 1:1 magnification along with a minimum focusing distance of 1'. This manual focus portrait-length lens also incorporates one high refractive index element and one extra-low dispersion element into its design to reduce chromatic aberrations and distortions throughout the focusing range. An Ultra Multi-Coating has also been applied to minimize flare and ghosting for increase contrast and color neutrality. A long focal length lens with close focusing abilities and a high magnification ratio, this macro lens is ideal for making close-up, detailed images of nearby subjects.

EF Mount Lens/Full-Frame Format    Aperture Range: f/2.8 to f/32    One High Refractive Index Element    One Extra-Low Dispersion Element    Ultra Multi-Coating    1:1 Magnification, 1' Minimum Focus    Internal Focus; Manual Focus Design    Non-Rotating Filter Mount    Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm

This 100mm f/2.8 lens features a Canon EF mount, and is compatible with full-frame sensors or APS-C sensors, where it will provide a 160mm equivalent focal length.

A bright f/2.8 maximum aperture is useful for working in a variety of lighting conditions and the minimum f/32 aperture helps to attain a long depth of field when working with close-up subjects.

One high refractive index element and one extra-low dispersion element help to control chromatic aberrations and minimize distortions throughout the focusing and aperture ranges.

An Ultra Multi-Coating has been applied to lens elements to reduce lens flare and ghosting for increased clarity, contrast, and color fidelity.

Featuring a macro design, this lens affords a 1:1 maximum magnification ratio along with a minimum focusing distance of 1'.

Benefitting working with especially close subjects, this manual focus lens features an internal focus design to maintain the overall lens length during use. Additionally, the front filter mount does not rotate when focusing to better enable the use of polarizers, graduated ND, and other filter types that require precise positioning.

A rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing out-of-focus quality when using selective focus or shallow depth of field techniques.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this work with Sony alpha nex-5n? I mounted it but it says cannot recognize lens attach it properly. Any ideas?

A: Thank you so much Lisa!!!!

Q: 2. Does this lens need a tripod collar when used with a Sony A6000, and if so, is one available?

A: This Rokinon 100mm f/2.8 Macro Lens for Sony E cameras does not require a tripod collar nor does Rokinon make one for it.

Q: 3. How is the aperture controlled?Purely manually with the ring closes to the camera, or from the camera controls like a genuine Olympus lens for instance?

A: The lens has an f/stop ring and is changed manually from the lens.The f/stop ring is on the end of the lens near the camera.

Q: 4. How does this lens compare to the Canon 100mm macro? I'm interested in it for studio work.

A: I feel canon glass is better then Rokinon

Q: 5. Does this lens work with the Fujifilm X-T2 and Panasonic Lumix GH4? Thanks.

A: The Rokinon 100mm f/2.8 Macro Lens for Fujifilm X will mate perfectly with the Fujifilm X-T2 and any other X mount camera. That means, however, since it has a Fujifilm X lens mount, it cannot fit on a camera like the Lumix GH4 which has an MFT lens mount. They are incompatible.

Q: 6. Does this lens have fully internal focusing mechanism or external? (Does the lens extend while focusing?)

A: This lens has internal focusing. Any extending is believed to be negligible.

Q: 7. Would this lens work with the recently added focus bracketing feature on the X-T2?

A: it's a manual focus lens, it can't possibly work with the focus bracketing setting on the Fuji X-series, which requires an auto focusing lens.

Q: 8. Is the lens so heavy that it needs a support when using with the Sony A6000? If it doesn't come with a tripod collar, so how would you support it?

A: This lens is very heavy. It does not need a support however. Usually when I shoot with this one, I hold the lens instead of the camera body (hard to explain, but the lens takes the weight, not the body.) I spite of the weight, this is a spectacular lens. The color and sharpness are vibrant. The bokeh is just the softest (even with high f stop). Worth the weight.

Q: 9. Can this lens aperture be controlled through the camera? Can you use shutter priority with it?

A: You would control the aperture on the lens not the body, however you can put the aperture ring on X and then put the camera in shutter priority or program.

Q: 10. does this work with auto focus?

A: No, it does not. The Rokinon 100mm f/2.8 Macro Lens for Sony E is a fully manual lens. You would have to focus the lens manually and you would set the aperture of the lens using the aperture ring built onto the lens.
