So, can you use the old EW-83F lens hood on the new 24-70 L?

See thread title. I just prefer the look of the old hood. I know, I'm shallow.

No that's imposible. The 24-70L (1) was zooming inside the lenshood. The new one doesn't. So even if it will fit to the front you will always see the hood in your picture.

But I am sure the hood wouldn't fit at all because the new lens has a bigger diameter.

Ahh there we go. Well darn. I liked that lens hood a lot. But the first 24-70 is a little too soft for me. Oh well.

the opening on the EW-83F is about 82mm and given that is exactly the size of the filter thread on the 24-70 II, I'm picking it'll be about 4mm too small to fit...


some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", and an M5, also an M6 that has had a 720nm filter bolted onto the sensor:
