Macro Test - 100mm f2.8 USM Macro

So, it's finally here!  The 100mm f2.8 USM macro lens that I've been waiting for!

Here's what a quick check of the lens shows - shot off a tripod, using mirror lockup.  Comments on each separate page.

In summary, I think that this lens will be able to perform its primary function - be able to illustrate watch parts at a good level of magnification.  I had NO idea that it would be this big, though - so that's good!  The only logistical issue may be again figuring out a good working distance to take "normal" shots.

I am disturbed by what is going on with the "35mm equivalent" field in the EXIF information.  This is clearly not correct in the case of the "actual size" images - clearly my actions in Photoshop are leading to bogus information being stored in the EXIF.
