I bought this for my husband. He requested it specifically because he said that it does a great job of blocking the sun from the lens. He misplaced the one he used to own at my home in another state. We moved here, and never found it when we were packing. He ordered another one of the very same kind because he like it so.

Again, I got this for my Canon lens!! It’s great hood, but just over price for it.

Not quite sure what to say about the lens hood…it does what it supposed to do however when you use it you can’t use the lens cover which was very disappointing to me. I assumed (shame on me) that I would be able to snap the lens cover on after shooting my photos but in order to do that I have to remove this lens hood so it now becomes a choice of what do I really want to use????

Every lens should have a hood not only to prevent glare and lens flare but also for protection from drops and getting banged around. It’s a small price to pay for such expensive camera lenses. I highly recommend it.

Nice to have specially when you are outdors – it protects the lens when getting banged around hanging from your neck. Be careful with obstruction shadows when used with a flash.
