Question by Rave: Do All the Macro Lenses On Canon’s Site Work For All Canon SLR Cameras?
I have a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS and I’ve been wanting a macro lens for awhile now but while looking on Canon’s site to decide which one to get I found that I wasn’t sure which lenses worked for which camera. Are the lenses only for certain cameras? Or would I be ok with any of them for my camera?

While they can all be used on your camera, the EF-S 60mm
f/2.8 Macro USM cannot be used on any of the 5D or 1D camera bodies

Your Rebel XS is fully compatible with all EF and EF-S lenses.
Canon have three very good Macro lenses available.
They are…
EF 180mm f/3.5L USM Macro…it’s heavy and expensive (this lens has the best bokeh of the three)
EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro…this is an excellent macro lens (this has the next best bokeh of the three)
EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM Macro…this is also a very good macro lens. Can’t be used on full frame cameras.
My pick is the EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro, because it allows more working distance and is also fully compatible with full frame cameras (if you ever decide to go full frame). It gets ‘rave’ reviews and costs under US$ 600.
Check out the reviews for the 100mm and 60mm…
