i believe the nifty 50 is the 50 1.8.

canon makes a hood for the 1.4. mine cost about $39 out the door from keeble and shucat in palo alto.

go to B&H and check it out.

B&H website shows this one (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=162044&is=REG&addedTroughType=search)for the 50mm F1.4.

Sorry... I assumed the "nifty fifty" was referring to the f/1.8 lens, thus that's what I looked up the hood for. I overlooked the title of the thread.

The "nifty fifty" term is usually applied to the cheapie 50mm f/1.8, not the much better 50mm f/1.4 lens.

Get the Canon one, it's not cheap but is felt lined and works well . ordered mine before I ordered the lens :)
