Is this true? I use hoods mainly for protection and understand that it won't function properly as the real hood would in keeping out light. Gear

Do people prefer petal hoods more b/c of more shade/less vignetting? But then the 35L wouldn't really more be effective on the 135 in that regard.

Wilt Reader's Digest Condensed version of War and Peace [POTN Vol 1]  More info | Nov 14, 2011 17:09 | #13 The problem is that the 135L hood is made to suit the narrow angle of view of the 135mm FL (16 degrees), while the 35L hood has to be short enough to permit the much wider AOV needed by the 35mm FL (63 degrees), which is why the 35L hood has cutouts and forms the 'petal' where it would vignette the photo. So while the 35L hood fits, it does not protect as well from stray light striking the front element of the telephoto lens! You need to give me OK to edit your image and repost!
