WTB: Canon Lenses

Looking to buy some Canon glass. Especially interested in macro lenses and lenses with wide zoom ranges. I prefer Canon brand, but I'm open to 3rd party lenses.

Lenses I currently have:
Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III
Canon EF-S 50mm f/1.8 II
Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM

Tell me what you got!

I wish. A little out of my current price range right now. My family is pitching in to get me a new lens or 2 for Christmas. I doubt I could pull that much from them

I've got an 18-55 that I'm looking to sell. I'm trying to clean out some space for a couple lenses myself. I also have a 50mm, but I think I'd shoot myself if I sold that one.

Well I already have an 18-55 lens and a 50mm prime anyways

I'm really trying to find the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro lens. It's a little bit more than I was looking to spend, but I might be able to work it out. Especially if someone has a used one.

WTB!

Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro...PST

Just picked up my Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM. Probably the closest you can get to "L" quality glass without making the jump. I think I'm good for now. I need to stop spending money.

You didn't want the 85 1.8? That's also an excellent lens.

The 85mm doesn't have the 1:1 ratio that the 100mm has, which is almost essential for true macro photography.

Plus, I just picked up a 17-40mm F/4L USM lens.
