Hi all,

bought 100 mm macro as a macro and portrait lens.

the lens is extremely sharp, merely flawless, I was happy with it, but I want more.



Only flaw is bokeh, i want a better bokeh.

on close focus distance (less than 2 meters) bokeh is amazing but when distance is longer things aren't that good, bokeh is still fine but not as good as I want.

so I am considering replacing it, since this is my mainly shooting.

my options

Canon 85mm f1.8 only if it manages to outperform the 100mm macro

Canon 100mm f2.8 macro L IS seems an obvious choice till now.

Canon 70-200f2.8 IS,(only if it wasn't that big)

Canon 70-200f4 IS ( only if it wasn't F4)

I am using a cropn body (30D) my next purchase will be the 7D
