Canon ET-86 Lens Hood for the 70-200mm f/2.8L "IS" EF Lens
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.
The "petal" shape of this lens hood maximizes the amount of hood coverage for the minimum amount of weight and hood area. This dedicated lens hood is designed to match the specific focal length of the lens it was designed for.

I use a lens shade all the time and had misplaced mine.
Nice to know that I can just call up and find that you have it

Comments about Canon ET-86 Lens Hood:
Bloody expensive for what it is, but it does say Canon on it. Never tried a 3rd-party hood, such is the appeal of the OEM gear. Image really is everything.

Comments about Canon ET-86 Lens Hood:
Works well when putting lens against glass for pictures of animals at a zoological facility. Also helps with lens flare. Can be difficult to attach to the lens as it is a tight fit.
