This Sigma Lens Hood is specifically designed for the 70-200mm f/2.8 DG DN OS Sports Lens. It is made from carbon fiber reinforced plastic, or CFRP, and has a slim and lightweight profile that will not impair your lens' mobility. The tip of the hood is rubberized to protect your lens from any scratches or abrasion that may occur when placing the lens upside down.

Sigma would choose to go from a bayonet style hood and go with this screw on thing. It protrudes from the side and looks like it's just waiting to be broken. Anyway, the decision by Sigma to go this route perplexes me. This is not an abnormal diameter for one of these lenses. Sigma did it on the 150-600 too. Anyway, love the lens but just don't understand why they would go this screw on route. Bad design choice and I cannot imagine it is to save money because I cannot see the savings.
