I actually like the third party macro lenses as much as the brand names. The Tamron 90mm macro is an excellent lens and can be purchased for less than the Canon 100. You would be hard pressed to notice a difference in image quality between the two of them.

Same could be said of the Sigma 70mm or 105mm macro or the Tokina 100mm macro.
