I tried using the faulty 50mm lens on another 5d mark iii body, same thing happened. With dark rings all over.
Other lenses are good with my own 5d mark iii.

Not forgetting also the image stabilization.

VK what do you mean by non-protruding?

The lens element doesn't come out when you focus.

This is very helpful if you are an avid macro shooter, you don't want to frighten the bug away.

talk about macro shooting, typically ppl only use manual focus

oh, C100 non-L also not protruding.

yeah, I meant compared to Siggy 105mm.

depends on situation actually, sometimes the subject like a moving bug, how to shoot manual?

depend on skill, thats why some of the shooter custom their speedlite to 'stop' the subject aside from filling light.

U wont' shoot a flying butterfly and call it Macro right

It boils down to personal preference. Manual or Auto, you can still shoot macro.

Exactly, it's all about knowing when to switch to manual and when to use auto focus.

Deciding auto focus or manual focus doesn't depends on skill, it depends on what you are shooting and your preference.

If shooting flying butterfly is not considered as macro, then what is it called?

As long you are shooting small items larger than life size, it's macro photography.

Taken several years ago, with my C100 f2.8 USM. Very active fella, keep running around.
