Convenient
You can keep this hood on your lens all the time. Push the hood back to the retracted position, and it's easy to snap your original lens cap onto the inner metal ring of the hood. When retracted, this hood doesn't stick out beyond the front of the lens, but it does increase the lens diameter. It's a lot less extra bulk to carry around than a conventional hood. I'm using this hood with the Panasonic 25mm f/1.4 micro four thirds lens, and there is no vignetting. I also tried this hood on the Olympus 12mm f/2 lens, but as expected, there is significant vignetting. I haven't tried stacking a circular polarizer on top of the hood to see if that causes vignetting.

Work great for standard prime lens
They have been around for years and work just great for a standard to wide prime lens. The B+W hoods are inexpensive and the rubber lasts a long time. I have used these on occassion to press the lens against a window when I have to shoot through glass and since they flex you can shoot at angles without getting reflections from the window.

It works.
I use this hood on my Panasonic 20/1.7 & 14/2.5 lens, which sadly didn't come with a hood included. It works as advertised. It's compact enough so I keep it on all the time, and the front is threaded so I can put my front caps on it. I should mention, it covers the 14/2.5 perfectly with no vignetting.

Nice quality
Good quality product. I am using it with a Panasonic 20mm 1.7 pancake lens. I have the lens hood screwed into a B&W 46mm clear protective filter. I can easily collapse the lens hood and still put the lens cap that came with the lens in place. Seems to hold it's shape quite well.

Inexpensive and perfectly functional
Works great on the Olympus 17mm F1.8 without vignetting.

Nifty and useful
I purchased this for my 20mm Panasonic pancake lens and used it for landscape/vista photography in pre-noon sun at a national park. I was really happy with it. It substantially reduced sky blowout--I think it did it better than my graduated filter (although I'm not a pro, so maybe I was just doing something wrong). That alone made me very happy. The collapsible hood is space-saving, lets you take a lens cap on and off without much difficulty, and--call me easily amused--is just sort of fun to play with. I use a micro 4/3rds camera and a pancake lens because I want something compact--adding a regular lens hood would have defeated the purpose of my setup. This was a great solution for me!

Perfect for Pany 20mm
I bought the Panasonic 20mm pancake lens for my Panasonic G1. Great lens, but does not come with a hood. Looked at various hood, but as soon as I saw that B+W made a hood, I grabbed it.It is extremely well made and works perfectly on the lens. Highly recommended.I have nothing negative to say about another excellent B+W product ...

There is a difference in hoods.
I initially purchased a rubber 46mm hood online that tuned out to be quite flimsy. I shot a bunch of flash pictures at a party and most of them had bad light flare. It turns out that the hood was so limp it folded back and let the flash ruin my pictures. This B+W hood is much sturdier. While it folds easily, it snaps into its extended position and stays in place. Like every other B+W product I have purchased, it is excellent.
