Hello All
Recently I had lost one of my lens hoods (one for 70-200 f4l) and I need a replacement. A Canon one costs a decent amount of cash so, my question is, are there any non Canon brand ones that are still good, but less money?
Thank You
Michael D.

You betcha there are less expensive lens hoods. I bought all of my hoods off Ebay for about 3 bucks a hood. one of the more reliable sellers is-----selina1900 There are other honest sellers but I found that this one usually had the hoods for my lens

They have some hoods in the POTN store. Are they quality?

That white hood looks pretty cool! If I didn't already have 2 Canon hoods for my 70-200, I woulda bought that. :)

I have one (white hood) and is great: fits well (just like the canon) and looks good on the lens too. I put a round of black gaffer's tape and the end to ease the white and make it less vulnerable to impact.
