nice hood January 19, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
some may turn away at the price because you think oh its just a small piece of plastic. well this is pro grade lens hood. the cheapest price i found on any site was on amazon so if you bought it straight from canon expect to pay at least 10 bucks more. it does exactly what it is suppose to .. keep out the sun from my lens and if you ever drop it which no one should it ill protect the more expensive parts of your camera.
Too expensive! January 13, 2007 20 out of 22 found this review helpful
Canon's pricing on this lens shade reminds me of inkjet printers: they practically give you the printer, then skin you alive with ink costs. Don't get me wrong, the "tulip" shade works fine (although it throws a shadow on imges when you use the pop-up flash), but it should cost a fraction of what they charge. I'd guess they cost less than two bucks to make, if that. It's nothing but formed plastic. I don't like giving Canon a bad review because, otherwise, they make world-class products. So I'd give this lens shade five stars for use, but one star for pricing, an overall 3.
Canon Lens Hood January 10, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Lens hood fits very well and the reduction in glare was perceptable.
Should have been included with lens. January 9, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This lens hood is (of course) just right for the lens, but it's a shame that Canon squeezes a little extra revenue by selling accessories that ought to be included with expensive products.
Lens Hood for the EF-S 17-85 f/4-5.6 IS USM SLR Lens October 12, 2006 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
Having recently picked up the hobby of digital photography I was not aware of the nuances and the importance of some of the accessories. Back in "the day" when shooting 35mm film I could barely afford the cost of processing - let alone what I thought were fancy accessories. Well - some reading and a trip to Alaska with my Canon Digital Rebel XT - I learned, and appreciate, the importance of a lens hood. I bought a rubber lens hood (not lens specific) at a local camera store that was totally unacceptable - then bought the lens hood for my Canon lens from Amazon. It works great - no flare - no vignetting - and it makes the lens look pretty cool too! I would suggest having a hood for all your lenses and never shooting without - along with the obvious - it saves the front of the lens from bumping damage which is important with longer lenses or tight quarters like shooting on a photo excursion boat full of other people all jockeying for a shot! Amazon service and prices - as usual - were fantastic and although I HATE to wait for things - I am usually happy I do when I order from here. Happy snapping!!!
