The Canon EF 135mm 2.0 L USM is super sharp, has great contrast, very good colors, it focuses very fast, has a good close focus of 90 cm. I have used it a lot for butterflies and dragonflies with and without the 1,4x extender with great results. I can highly recommend it.

I used the Canon EF 135mm 2.0 L USM for many years and I have been VERY happy about it, but now I use Sony A7R4 with Sony FE 135 1.8 GM which has a close focus of 70cm (ratio 1:4) almost real macro, which it certainly is in APSC mode (26 megapixel). The Sony 135mm is sharper with more contrast and stronger colors than the Canon 135mm, so if you are thinking of  a mirrorless, go for Sony !
