01 / EDITORIAL TAKE
Why this lens earns its place
A rare everyday macro that keeps 1:1 capability, modern autofocus, and high detail in a body light enough to remain mounted between close-up sessions.
- Best for
- Product details, food, flowers, travel close-ups, and photographers who want one normal-plus-macro lens.
- Main tradeoff
- The short working distance can shade small subjects and gives less room for lighting than the XF 80mm macro.
