very well made
I'm new in photography but my sis owned a photo shop so I have seen many photo accessories. This Lens Hood is one of the nicest. It folds back (together) with a simple push and pulls out for quick use. It allows keeping the lens hood on when storing or in the Camera bag. It is so handy. The rubber isn't cheap or flimsy, it should last many many years. The threads are perfect, without effort or fiddling fit perfectly. As added bonus and protection, when the hood is collapsed it allows the Lens Cap to cover the lens. The lens cap protrudes about 5mm (less than 1/4) past the Hood, therefore storage height wise (length of lens) is not a factor. Width wise adds about 5mm (1/4) to the circumference.

Handy and Useful
I bought this to use on my 50mm lens, but also put it on my 18-55mm which I use more often. (I use a crop sensor Canon XSi, multiply by 1.6 for 35mm equivalent) It works without vignetting down to about 22mm on the 18-55. The main reason I bought a screw-in hood was to use it with a circular polarizer (it would be nearly impossible to rotate the polarizer with a standard hood). With the hood installed on top of the filter, it vignettes a bit sooner, 24mm, and it is also slightly visible even when folded at 18mm. I was originally going to subtract one star because it doesn't fold completely out of view at 18mm but, of course, it was not designed to be used at that wide of an angle. Therefore, I have no complaints. It is easy and convenient to use, folds in and out with a touch, and does what it was designed to do. Compare this to the Canon hood for the 50mm f/1.4, at 3x the price, useable (presumably) only on that lens, and non-folding, and it's a no-brainer.

Good utility on a telephoto
Using on a Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS to the outside of a 2 filter stack (polarizing and UV). As compared to some of the rubber hoods with three positions, this one has collapsed and extended, but no vignetting at 55mm. Sturdy construction and quality threads. Collapsed, serves as a bumper for the filters. Extended, hood is deep enough that no flare so far. Textured outer ridge of hood makes fine tuning the polarizer much easier. In collapsed position, easy to mount 58mm lens cap and holds cap securely.

Flexible and Effective Lens Hood
Vintage lenses adapted to modern cameras have real potential, but they also need protection from stray light and the normal bumps that can occur in routine photography. This lens hood is ideal for the 58mm thread size of my vintage Minolta lens. The rubber allows it to compact down for easy transportation. It expands fairly well to protect against unwanted light intruding onto the lens (a real problem for this lens). It might have been nicer to have it expand just a tad more for more light protection, but it might have caused a problem where the hood appears in the shot (defeating the point). All in all, it's a decent after-market lens hood for this thread size / lens.

Works as promised
I used a folding hood back in the 35mm film days and am happy to be using this one in conjunction with a solid tulip hood. As usual you have to watch for vignetting. But with the rubber hood once you notice it all it takes is a push with your palm and the hood is folded. Or a change of position if that is workable. Either way it is a good piece of equipment at a reasonable price.

Threaded to Accept Front Filters
I had asked B&H about front threads for squeeze cap or filters, was advised the hood accepted squeeze caps but was NOT threaded for filters. In fact, after purchase, I find it IS threaded and accepts screw filters in front very nicely. But watch vignetting unless stepping up in size. Very nice hood. Feels durable but not too bulky.

Functional Hood
I use this hood on my Canon 28mm. I like having the ability to expand/contract the hood as needed. For me, it's much more convenient than detaching a regular hood and flipping it around backwards on the lens for storage. In my experience, it performs just as well as the standard plastic hoods.

Well made
I use this on my Nikon 55-300 ED lens. It comes folded in a nice thin plastic case. It's a lot more rugged and more easily stowable than the flimsy Nikon hood that came with the lens.
