As vital a protective accessory as a pair of safety glasses
The 50mm f/1.4's front element is already deeply recessed which is most likely why the lens is more flare resistant than other 50mm lenses. This O.E.M. hood is the only well-fitting accessory necessary to 'complete' this lens. Since I don't like to reverse the hood during storage, removing the 58mm lens cap is tricky with my large thumb and index finger.

Canon provides the hood for all of their L lenses. It only makes sense to buy a hood for all non-L lenses you own.

Necessary accessory for 50 f1.4 lens
This Canon lens is well fitted to the 50 1.4. The interior has a matte surface and stops reflections. Although it is on the expensive side, I have bought the off-brand lens hoods and by the time you pay shipping from China you don't save that much. Often they don't fit right, and the one I bought let light in on the sides! Definitely not worth even half the price of the Canon. Although it seems expensive, the hood protects your valuable lens from damage as well as blocking that light and ruining your pictures and they pretty well last the lifetime of the lens.

A must
Any professional photographer will tell you that a lens hood not only protects the lens but also improves contrast and color sauturation in your pictures. It costs so little compared to the camera that it's a no brainer to have one.
