I just got the Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM from Hong Kong (parents went on a trip, I asked them to bring me back some cheap canon gear), and it's great.
Life size macro, really fast and sharp focusing. Its a pretty chunky lens, its bigger than my 75mm-300mm zoom, but its not too heavy. Havent tried using it on a tripod yet, but I may have to get the tripod adapter, the center of balance is thrown way off with this huge thing stuck on the end of my camera.
Overall I'm very happy with it though, got it at 2/3rds of the local list price, and its great for things other than macro shots, medium portraits, even longer shots. Just waiting on my filter kits to arrive before I start shooting a lot more and posting them here.
