Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM Macro
Take opportunity to buy one of the best macro lens in the market, a star performer at all levels.
This mint lens in excellent condition comes boxed with caps and manual. The inset image below taken with it on a 40D is a 100% crop of a raw file processed in photoshop CS3 without sharpening (f/4.5, 1/250s, i250).
A thoroughly modern design that's optimized for Canon EOS digital SLRs with the APS-c sensor (300D, 350D, 400D, 20D, 30D). Its angle of view is equivalent to a 96mm lens on a 35mm camera, with a floating optical system that can focus down to full life-size (1:1) magnification. Inner focusing, driven by a silent and powerful ring-type USM, means the lens' overall length never changes during focus. This lens is a wonderful multi-purpose lens that's equally at home shooting macro shots, portraits or available-light photos

The Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM macro delivers an almost flawless performance. The lens is capable to provide very sharp border-to-border results with minimal distortions and low CAs. The bokeh (out-of-focus blurr) is exceptionally smooth…..So combined with its high build quality, very fast AF and a pretty affordable price the only verdict can be ... HIGHLY recommended!

Optically, the 60mm is among the best lenses we've tested. It produced excellent SQF numbers at all apertures.
