KUVRD - Universal Lens Hood - Fits 99% of Lenses, Holds 99% of Circular Filters, Fits 72-112mm, Single - (Medium)

I bought this hood to use on a Nikkor-W 210mm f5.6 lens on a large format view camera.It fit very well and stayed securely attached with no external support.The usual solution is a bellows-type hood with a wire frame that attaches to a beamprojecting from the front standard of the camera. By contrast. this filter is made offan-folded silicone and attaches directly to the lens.Advantages:* Collapses flat* Much more economical to buy* Opens wider* Can be used with any camera the lens/lens board will fit* Can be left on the lens if desired* Nearly indestructible: nothing to crack or rust* Soft, if you happen to run into it while ducking around your tripodDisadvantages:* Must be stretched to attach--be sure your tripod is stable or attach hood to lens beforeattaching lens to camera* Getting the hood to fold where you want it to can be a bit fiddly* Will hold a round filter--but not necessarily securely.Since I use this lens with both my 4x5" camera and my 5x7" camera,this hood was a natural choice. It collapses flat when attached,and is smaller than the lens board--so it fits right in the storage box.I also shoot miniature and medium format, mainly with Nikon lenses.Would I use this hood instead of the Nikon hood made for the lens?For a prime focus lens, probably not (the Nikon hood exactly matchesthe angle-view-of the lens, and is often has a square opening). Butfor a zoom lens, I definitely would. Zoom lenses are portable and versatile,and so is this hood. And having a good hood is especially important withzooms--which usually have many elements and groups--in order to reduceflare (including the insidious kind you can't see but that reduces contrast).Buy one of these great hoods in each size and keep them in your camerabag, and you'll never again be stuck shooting outside without a hood ona bright, sunny day.

I so wanted this to work for me, I often shoot through glass in zoos etc and wanted an easy option to prevent the glare. However, both my telephoto lenses just wouldn't allow the hood to stay in place. If you pull it right down the lens you then can't retract the lens to its shortest length as the rubber is in the way, pulling it any further away from the camera results in it immediately falling off. Sadly it was returned.Lenses I tried it on are the EF100-400 Canon L and the RF 24-105 L.

とてもいい商品だと思います

I got this lens hood for my RF 600 lens. It fit fine and works well, I would like to make a suggestion since this is a fairly new product , I use lens hoods for flair but also protection, and this is where this rubber hood falls short. No protection at all, if they could add some stiffness to the rubber or some other device for lens protection then this would be a 5 star product. Still a little pricey but would fill a needed void in lenses.

Nikon 24-70mm F2.8で使用するために購入しましたがかなりズームにしないとフードそのものが映り込みます。高角撮影なんてもってのほかですが光がより映り込まないように窓に押し付けたらぐにょりと隙間が出来てそこから光が映り込むという・・・。ズームにしたらレンズが出てカバーしてないのと同じような状態に。レフ板タイプでしっかりと映り込まないようなある程度の大きさがやはり必要だと痛感しました。
