I wanted a macro so got the 100mm f2.8 ( I didn't get the l since for macro you should use a tripod)

You should? Crap. Not sure what to do now with all those great macro shots I've taken over the years, handheld...

I've done handheld and with a tripod, and a tripod is helpful when shooting at a slow speed.

The case for me was that if it was a fast shot I could handheld and when it was a slow shoot, a tripod helped. So I didn't need IS.

Now is the nasty comment really needed? Can't you comment without being snarky? Its not appreciated.
