The L just means the pro line, L for Luxury, and of course the glass is ED, or apochromatic, and they're much more expensive than the ef lenses. The 50 mm macro lens is not an L lens, but it is Canon's sharpest lens. In fact Popular Photography said that lens was the sharpest lens they had ever tested. They gave it an A+ rating at 16x24 inches. Not even the Leica lenses got that good a rating. I've owned leica, nikon, and canon, in 35mm, and I completely agree, the Canon 50mm macro is my sharpest lens.
