Editorial Review: Product Description: Lens hoods are primarily designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of the lens. In addition, since the end of the lens is extended, you also get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact. This dedicated lens hood is designed to match the specific focal length of the lens it was designed for. Amazon.com Product Description: The addition of a lens hood can help prevent flares--those circles of light that can accompany images where a strong light source is just outside the fame. These type of lens flares occur when indirect light rays pass through the front lens elements but don't make it all the way through to the image sensor. Canon's EW-73B Lens Hood is designed for the Canon EF-S 17-85 f/4-5.6 IS USM SLR Lens. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Useful shadeThis shade, made by Canon is much better, a better fit and more sturdy than a generic shade sold by a famous NYC store. It is well worth the price, and does not interfere with the use of filters. Rating: - Don't get it for the Canon EF 10-22mm LensMy mistake obviously, but I took some erroneous online advice to use it for my Canon EF 10-22 lens and it doesn't fit at all. Even if I monkeyed with it there's no way it would fit. I still gave it 4 stars because it's a nice quality piece. Minus 1 star because they weren't clear about the size of it. Rating: - Good lens hood with one limitationThis lens hood does what it's supposed to do, but if you are using a 40D with the built in flash, it will cast a shadow on your subject at about 28mm and within roughly 7 feet. Rating:  - Decent Lens HoodHow much can you say about a lens hood? I gave it 3 stars because it's a little clumsy to put on and off. Otherwise, it does the job. Rating: - Great hood, but beware of wide angle flash shots.I'm using the EW73B Lens Hood on my EF-S 17-85 lens with a Canon 40D and it works great for outdoor and indoor shots, but... If you're using the built-in flash on the 40D, like I do, this hood will cast shadows on your shots when you have the lens any wider than about 28mm. Other than this one caveat, it's a great hood. |
