It depends on your priorities as to which is best for your needs. I certainly like using the 180mm for larger insects and where there's space to use it but at 1:1 the MP-E 65mm is the sharpest by a wide margin. I reckon the MP-E 65mm is the best Canon macro lens....it's in a league of it's own for what it does and how well it does it
