Customer Reviews

Also fits Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens
The hood looks good, and protects the lens. Just a note, it fits my Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens perfectly.

Canon ET60 Lens Hood for EF 75-300mm f/4.0-5.6 SLR Lens
The ET60 fits the affordable Canon 300mm lens but if you're using it with, for example, a Rebel 300D or XT, it will also fit onto the standard 18-55mm lens -- however, when fully zoomed out, part of the hood is visible, creating somewhat of a circle in the frame. I happen to think it looks really cool, gives it a fisheye sort of feel. In regards to the 300 use, it seems to work pretty well and I use it at all times -- bright sun or late afternoon. As most people probably have said, lens hoods in general not only shade the lens from stray light or weird angles of the sun (which often, without a hood, makes the photo hazy or grey) but it also provides protection for the lens itself and filter. It's not much money if you're into photography, and it makes your lens look awesome. If you're a beginner and purchased a 300mm, you don't really need to get the hood. Keep it as something to look forward to once you've got some experience. Either way it's a nice piece to use.

Fits the new 55-250 perfectly.
I hate that it's not included with the lens like my Sigma and Tamron lenshoods. And I kept telling myself I didn't really want or need the hood and that lenshoods are DUMB ANYWAY.

Then I gave in to my avarice and bit the bullet and bought it.

...and really like it.

It looks good, fits good, reverses nicely, isn't so large that it makes it diffcult to carry in a lenscase or camera bag, isn't rigid so it even absorbs a little shock if you bump it on something.

I'm still refusing to buy the lenshood for the kit lens, though, I mean come on, I have SOME dignity. :)
