COnsidering a macro- I know i've posted in the photo forum but want to get a local aswer.
Considering this (Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro )any other suggestions are def welcome.

The 100 is a great lens and is very, very sharp. I'm actually selling one if your interested.

Most of my tank shots are taken with the 100mm, including the one that won the photo contest. It's a great, sharp lens. The 60mm is maybe $50 less, it gives up a lot of working distance. Other options in the range are the Tamron 90 or the Sigma 105, but I think you've said that you prefer to stick with Canon.

The 60mm is noisy and slow. I had it for a couple of days and ended up upgrading it for the 100mm Works a whole lot better.
