I’m starting to get better, and get better hardware too: 5D Mark II, 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM, but I started to realize (as I found where my interests were in this hobby) that macro was actually really important to me; and so armed with that revelation I boldly moved forward and acquired another L-class lens and have absolutely, and unequivocally no regrets.Unlike the 50mm f/1.2L USM that the performance doesn’t justify the premium over the non-L 50mm f/1.4 USM (IMO), this 100mm f/2.8L IS USM is worth ever single penny…and then some. I wouldn’t give one more microsecond thought on this purchase if I were you. Get it, and start getting creative.I’ve creeped out the girlfriend with spider pictures 1600 pixels wide in hairy gross and detail, I’ve got multi-layered reflections in glass with focus clearly on only one reflection, sand grains on hardwood, due drops off spider webs–with such detail–that you can actually see the trees behind them reflected upside down in the drops. Seriously, another world to explore.My Tips: (better photographers than me, will already know this). Tripod always (very narrow DOF wide open), Live View *magnified*, manual focus, timer or remote switch. This wonderful lens leaves no room for guesswork and fudging around, it is an exact, precise mechanism, and requires studious attention to detail. I have a fellow enthusiast that was totally floored by my results; he had previously gotten frustrated with his and sold it, just because his technique didn’t allow the lens to show him its capability (on holiday, hand held, on-the-fly shots).In short, if you know you have more than just a casual curiosity about macro photography, this is the lens to have in your kit.
