Hello all,
I am looking to pursue a career clinical photography and have been studying a online course in Photography.
I hope to build a good portfolio with powerful images and try and gain work experience at which ever hospital that will give me that chance.
I have a 1200D EOS DSLR Canon camera and looking to purchase my first macro/teleport lens.
I have been looking at the Canon EF 100mm f2.8L Macro IS USM Lens. I have read the reviews and it appears to be a fantastic lens that will give me excellent macro results. It offers Hybrid Image Stablization - fab as I will not need to use the tripod as much. What is putting me off is the price - so expensive - around the £650.00 mark. I could go for the older type Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro USM Lens, but it does not offer the Hybrid Image Stablization.
I was also thinking that this type of lens is more suited to a full frame camera. My 1200D is a cropped camera - image sensor is of a 18Mp APS-C - not sure if I should be looking for a different type of lens with the addition od extension tubing???
