DiveGirl 50

I'm considering purchasing a Canon 100mm Macro lens. I see that the lens is available either WITH or WITHOUT Image Stabilization.

Is it worth spending the extra money to get the version WITH Image Stabilization.

Port availability should not be a problem - I hope to be able to use my existing macro port (Canon 60mm) with a couple of extensions.

Thanks for any advice provided.

Inon Straight Viewfinder.
As new condition.

Has been used on a Nexus housing, but will fit Hugyfot, Seatool, Sea & Sea, and others.

Opening (Round) to housing measures 30mm across. Comes with spare o-rings (2)

Current new price is US$599

This high performance viewfinder extends eyepoint without changing image size in viewfinder. 100% of camera’s finder image is seen (1.0x) without any vignetting, even underwater with a mask.

Lens Construction: 3 groups, 5 elements.
The viewfinder is positioned in parallel with the camera’s finder so viewing replicates same natural eye position relative to camera as when shooting on land. Also, with the straight viewfinder it is possible to make fine distance adjustments between housing and subject by just moving housing relative to subject, without readjusting your body position each time, and without loosing sight of the subject in the viewfinder.

Will sell for US$400 with free postage.
