 Does the job May 23, 2007

The hood goes on and off relatively easily and gets the job done. Of course it also stores on the lenss as well which is a HUGE bonus 8-D
Great Bang for Buck Value May 20, 2007

I just recently got this lens hood and took it out to a park to try it out. I thought my EF 28-135 took good shots before... I was pleasantly surprised at the results of using this relatively cheap add-on. In a bright environment lens flare can be present in a subtle way, taking out some shadow depth and "bleaching" out a shot. This hood helps prevent that and really had an impact on my shots.
The hood itself is well built, made of high end plastics and the inside has a soft fabric coating to absorb light and protect your lens. It locks onto the front of the lens quickly and is easily removed when not wanted. You can also use this hood in conjunction with a lens filter, so you don't have to compromise between the two.
Again, you can't beat the bang for buck value here.

Nice Hood. The only thing I've noticed that I'm not crazy about is that the inner part of the hood is black velvet, which collects dust, stray hair, lint, etc.

Original lense hood is worth of money compared to cheaper copies. Difference is in inner surface of the hood. Black velvet will not reflect light at all. If you are not picky with that feature, go for cheaper ones.

I purchased the this lens hood with the matching lens just as a "best practice". I do believe it is worth the money and that a hood is appropriate in almost any condition.
GOOD
- eliminates all but the most powerful lens flare (i.e. pointing the camera at the sun)
- protects the lens somewhat
- durable and locks onto lens snugly
BAD
- makes lens even more bulky. I am struggling to find a bag which will accomodate my Digital Rebel XTI and a 28-135mm lens attached and equipped with this hood.
- the felt on the inside picks up fuzz. I don't know how Canon would fix this problem, but even being very careful you may notice flecks of lint and dust caught in the felt which lines the inside of the hood.
- the plastic on the outside quickly smudges with fingerprints.
This is just an FYI, not a bad point. If you use the built-in flash from a matching DSLR with this hood, you may very well get a nasty shadow. Using a higher quality flash which sits higher up on the camera eliminates this issue completely (in my experience).
