Cheap & Easy Way To Improve Your Photos While Protecting Your Lens December 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This lens hood is a very cost effective way of improving your photography by helping to reduce the accidental errors caused by lens flare, etc. Additionally, you get a little extra protection for your lens.
I tend to keep my camera out if I am taking photos throughout the day, so I really like that little extra piece of mind when I set it down on a table or bench as the hood keeps the lens from hitting the surface. Seems like a small benefit, but I would rather scratch up the hood than my lens...much cheaper to replace if needed.
This hood is easy to store on the lens when reversed, though it does add substantial size to the lens in the camera bag.
My only complaint (noted by another reviewer as well) is that this lens hood makes using a circular polarizer very difficult. I use the hood more than a polarizer though so this has not affected my rating of 5 stars.
Canon lens hood December 21, 2008 Very nice and fits well. Feels as if this hood will take a bump or two. I had felt an 'off-brand' hood before I opted for the Canon Brand one- 'off-brand' was less expensive and felt that way.
fits great November 16, 2008 It's cheap and it fits great. It's used to keep the sun from getting in the camera and washing out your shot. I bought the "Canon" brand because even though they over-charge for all their stuff, it's well constructed and you know it's gonna fit.
Works Very Well November 16, 2008 This lens hood is a welcome addition to the 28-135MM Lens. Canon should bite the bullet and include it with this lens instead of selling it as an accessory. It works as advertised, fits snuggly on the lens and can be turned around when storing the lens in your camera bag.
a must have October 6, 2008 this is a great product. if you are looking at this, you already know the benefits of a lens hood. if you don't know why, just buy it, because as you learn more, you will find out you will need it.
