Product Description

Lens hoods are primarily designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of the lens. In addition, since the end of the lens is extended, you also get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact. Dedicated lens hoods are designed to match the specific focal length of the lens it was designed for.

Stop wondering and by it. 5 by .. G. P. Gimenez (The Stinky Depths of Silicon Valley)
I can not believe Canon charges $25 for something I just received for about $8 w/shipping. Nice Fit. Reversible. Plastic seems high grade. Plus you will save enough $ from this to by a good Lowe or Tamrac lense bag. Buy it with no regrets.

As good as a lense hood can be 5 by .. C. Estevez (Houston, TX USA)
It works well as a hood. It is made of lighweight plastic very similar to the original Canon model. It fits perfectly on the lens we bought it for. Durability hasn't been tested yet (it's too recent to tell)

Nice hood for the money 5 by .. C. Berthiaume (Santa Monica, CA)
For the money it's a pretty nice hood. Screws into the lens or filter and allows you to use the lens cap with the hood installed.

Good option to more expensive Canon lens hood 5 by .. M. Everton (Baltimore, MD)
This lens hood seems to be pretty much an exact match for the much more expensive Canon-branded product. It mounts perfectly and seems to be well made. I have no problem recommending it.

Why wouldn't you buy this? 5 by .. J. Garner (Columbia, SC United States)
$3 for a reversible lens hood that snaps onto the end of your lens? As far as I can tell, it's nearly identical to the similar model Canon sells - but for $25 less. If you need a lens hood for your 18-55mm kit lens, look no further.
