Like the 100 L; the hood hugs the front optic so tightly that it's very hard to get the cap off when the the hood is in place and practically impossible to put back on again. As a wedding photographer and trying to move quickly, the regular cap makes using this lens obnoxious. Robert Wayne Photography
