OP/TECH USA Hood Hat, Medium
Key Features
  • Fits 3.5 to 4.0" Diameter Lens
  • Neoprene Stretches for a Custom Fit
  • Protects from Dust, Moisture & Impact
  • Cylindrical Design for Better Fit
The black, medium OP/TECH USA Hood Hat is designed to fit a lens and shade with a diameter from approximately (8.9 to 10.3 cm). Simply placing the Hood Hat onto the front of the hood while in place will provide just as much protection for the critical front lens elements as would be provided by a traditional lens cap. The neoprene material will adjust to fit both round and elliptical "petal-type" shades.

question

I would be using this hat to cover a Nikon 80-200 2.8D lens with lens shade attached to a 77 mm Tiffen neutral density filter. Is this the right one? Or,can I use the smaller one?
Asked by: Anonymous
The lens shade will give a bit of additional size to the diameter of the 80-200mm lens, so I would advise going with the medium sized Op/Tech USA Hood Hat.

I just purchased the nikon 85mm 1.4 lens and was looking for a cap or cover that will fit the HB-55 lens hood for when I am out shooting since it is tricky to use the included lens cap with the hood installed in the field?
Asked by: Ellis
The best way to determine the fit is to measure the outside diameter of your hood. The Hood Hats are a tapered design to fit a range of sizes. Small: 3"–3.5" Ø x 2" L (7.6cm-8.9cm x 5.1cm) Medium: 3.5"–4" Ø x 2" L (8.9cm–10.2cm x 5.1cm)

Asked by: Jerry
The OP/TECH USA Hood Hat, Medium should fit directly on a Canon 100-500mm lens, but I recommend the OP/TECH USA Hood Hat, Large (https://bhpho.to/3T0XKtT) instead.

Would this fit over a Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens, or should I use a medium?
Asked by: Marcus
Based on the tech specs for this lens, Dimensions (ø x L) 3.46 x 4.84" / 87.8 x 122.9 mm, the Small may be a better choice; the Medium will fit but may be slightly loose. Hood Hat Small: 3"–3.5" Ø x 2" L (7.6cm-8.9cm x 5.1cm) Hood Hat Medium: 3.5"–4" Ø x 2" L (8.9cm–10.2cm x 5.1cm)
