All my lenses have hoods, even my Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Macro which has a deeply recessed front element..

msowsun "approx 8mm" More info | Mar 09, 2011 10:44 | #34 shoturtle wrote in post #11986855 they are both the same, get the less expensive one I would say. The price is pretty close. I would get the second one that says you CAN use the lens cap. Lens hoods block side glare and augment the protection provided by filters to the lens surface and ring. The screw thread mount(NOT bayonet mount) design makes it firmly on the lens. NOTE: you couldn't fix the lens cap when you use the lens hood Sometimes these ebay sellers put the wrong photo in the ad. Nothing in the 1st ad says it is a 2 piece design. Just the photo.

Mar 09, 2011 15:31 | #36 I ordered from the first link seeming it's £1 cheaper (than £2...) if in doubt, I'll order the second and use the other one as a fancy paper clip holder or something! Work: CXSTLEdotcom

More info | Mar 09, 2011 15:44 | #37 I order one that was 3 dollars, as it said bayonet mount, and it has no problems mounting filters or the cap. So I would see how it is, before ordering another one. Or you can message the seller if it is a direct copy of the canon. Traveling is my passion, so I am a major Frequent Flyer.

I had to get one just to make the aesthetics of this lens look better. "Vision is the art of seeing that which is invisible"

I dont exactly baby this lens to begin with so having the hood on there helps. I tend to use this lens for more "dangerous" shoots (think Holi festivals and roller derby) so I like having the hood on there Gripped 7D // Gripped 5Dc // Gripped 5D mkIII ||50mm 1.4 | 85mm 1.8 |135L | 10-22 | 24-70 2.8 | 70-200 2.8 IS | Alien Bees B800 x2 | Alien Bees B400 x2| Waay too many Cybersync Triggers | 6x Yongnuo YN-560 II
