A dedicated hood is crafted to perfectly suit the specific focal length of the lens it is designed for.

Vello ET-63 Reviews

Functional but not great.

Using this hood was somewhat difficult. From what I've experienced, attaching it to the lens was sort of cumbersome. It just basically slips onto the lens by aligning it up with the grooves and rotating it until it is tight. It will overtime eventually wear down rendering it un-usable. Having said this it's easily replicable for the cost of it. I believe I have already reviewed this but I'm not sure if it was approved as I got the notification from BandH to leave a review for it.

Does what it is supposed to do

Always use a lens hood. It helps to protect your lens!
