The Vello 67mm Snap-on Tulip Lens Hood (Version II) is designed to fit lenses with a 67mm filter thread. The hood is designed for use with internal focus type zoom lenses. When used with "full frame" sensor cameras, the starting focal length should be above 20mm. With "APS-C" sensor cameras, the starting focal length should be above 15mm. With wider lenses, especially on full frame cameras, some slight vignetting might occur.

The "petal" shape of this lens hood maximizes the amount of hood coverage with the minimum amount of weight and hood area. In addition, the design of this hood allows it to be reversed and stored on the lens, when not in use. It is also designed to accept lens caps. 

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.

Comments about Vello 67mm Snap-on Tulip Lens Hood (Version II):

Anyone with a lens hood knows its not always necessary to have one. Although this particular hood makes a great add-on for protection. It's reversible on my 18-135 canon kit lens. It is of decent build quality. The only issue I've had is slight vignetting but that's nothing a little zoom cant fix

        Comments about Vello 67mm Snap-on Tulip Lens Hood (Version II):

        After an extended search for a lens hood to fit and Olympus 14-54mm f2.8-3.5 II with help from B&H Photo and Olympus, this hood was found. It fits the Olympus II lens with or without a UV filter in place, however, this hood will not fit on the lens when a lens cover is in place as did the original Olympus hood. As a result, if the lens cover is on the lens for protection, this hood must be carried separately and put on the lens after the cover is removed. B&H went the extra mile to help.
