 Canon lens hood June 26, 2008
Does just what it is supposed to do. Just make certain that you do not get anything on the inside of the hood, because it wants to stick to the felt-like anti-reflective material on the inside.
Canon quility and good price June 13, 2008
For the price, this is one nice hood. i have had generic hoods in the past and figured i would pick up a genuine canon hood. was very surprised in the difference. this hood had a very fine matte black texture to the inside of the hood to help reduce reflection into the lens. this is a great little item to pick up when you are shooting in sunlight.

Canon Lens hood June 9, 2008

This hood is solid and never twists off accidentally, like some of the imitations. It helps keep fingers away from the lense glass and works properly to keep out stray light without hurting the exposure. I recommend this product.
Works as a hood should, very high build quality June 2, 2008

I've had quite a few hoods, but this was my first "genuine" Canon hood (my previous lenses had been Sigma lenses).
First: do you need a hood? Instead, ask yourself: do you shoot outside, ever? If the answer is 'no', then you likely won't need the hood. If the answer is 'yes' then you will need the hood or to jerry-rig something equivalent (tip: a blackened index card and a rubber band can take the place of a hood in a pinch, and is much easier to apply than holding your hand out to shade the lens).
Second: build quality. There's not much to a hood. It just needs to cast a shadow, and, honestly, it's not hard to design something that does that. The "trick" to a hood is that it can be easily applied to a lens (because you don't want to stow your lens away with the hood extending beyond the front element). Canon's lens hood mount is different from, say, Sigma's (Canon hoods have two interlocking tongue/groove sections instead of three as with the Sigmas), so your third-party hoods won't work here. Where the Canon hood shines, compared to Sigma's own hoods and a third party hood I bought for my other Canon lens, is build quality. This is a single-piece hood. There is no flimsy attachment between the hood proper and the manufacturer-specific mount ring (obviously, because Canon dosn't need to support other manufacturer's mounts). The anti-reflective "velvet fuzz" coating on the inside adds an extra touch of class to the device.
Overall, it's not hard to fill the role of a hood, functionally. Canon really went the extra step here, delivering a high-quality tool which takes secondary aims (durability, reflections from shiny black plastic) into account.
You will likely want a hood for your lens. You owe it to yourself to get the Canon hood here.
Genuine part, works as it should May 30, 2008

This is a great addition to my 40D's kit lens. It looks more "professional" with the lens hood attached, and it keeps the glare out of the lens when shooting outdoors.
