I would appreciate it if someone can measure the widest part of this lens hood for me. I have this on order, but need to order a Lowepro Lens Case for the lens with the hood reversed for an upcoming trip. I don't have enough time to wait till the hood gets here to make measurements and then order the case.
Or if you use the Lens Cases from Lowepro with this lens, please let me know which one you use.
Thanks in advance.
