This lens performs macrophotography from life-size to 5x magnification. 5x magnification means taking a grain of rice and filling the 35mm frame with it.
This is a manual focus lens, which is typically how macro lenses are used anyway.
For the sharpest results we suggest the use of a tripod, focusing rails and Canon MR-14EX Macro ring lite.
