Pleased with this item
The lens works well with Canon Digital Rebel. The pictures are clear, yielding good resolution for macro shots.
Excellent product
I bought this lens thinking it was a MACRO lens. I thought it would allow me to take close up pictures, i.e. 1" away from subject. It is not that kind of macro lens.

In order to take pictures of small objects, I must put them on the floor, put the camera on the tripod pointed down, get up on a step stool and look through the viewfinder and focuse manually. (There is a special Macro switch on the lens that allows this "close up" work) I can fill the frame with the object, jewelry or coins and then use the remote to take the picture to minimize camera shake.

BUT! for taking telephoto pictures, this is a fantastic lens. We are planning a beach trip and I plan to get some really close up pictures of some hotties at the beach. Hahaha! If my wife lets me that is. This lens really magnifies the images. If you are doing surveillance work this lens would be great for you.

I would wholeheartedly recommend this lens as long as you understand it is not a 1:1 macro lens. It is a telephoto that will shoot some images that appear right there with you but are many feet away.

I have done some more research on 1:1 macro lenses and they come in 50mm, 70mm, 105mm sizes and allow you to shoot ACTUAL MACRO images.
