Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon ES-62 Lens Hood for EF 50mm f/1.8 II (w/ hood adapter 62)
Customer Review: Actually Worth It
Summary: 5 Stars
I know this has been stated time and time again but here it is again, "this is a lot of money for a piece of plastic." That being said the difference in photographic results makes it worth the investment. Decreased flaring, increased contrast and natural saturation. You probably paid well over a thousand bucks for your camera set-up. In the big picture this is a sound investment. The lens adapter is well made and I'm 90% sure it's some type of metal. The two pieces fit together well and the connecting mechanism is fairly sophisticated. This explains 50% of the price. I bought the canon hood because it is reversible for storage unlike the generic model for this lens. Also unlike the generic model the part that threads into the lens is metal or at least won't strip. The 50mm f/1.8 is a decent portrait, all-around lens and will get plenty of use. This product will decrease the number of shots ruined by flare. Don't expect miracles but this will improve your average shot a small amount.
Description of Canon ES-62 Lens Hood for EF 50mm f/1.8 II (w/ hood adapter 62)
Canon lens hoods are one of the most important accessories for each lens you own. A lens hood provides multiple functions: it shades the lens from stray light, improving your contrast and image quality in inclement weather, it can assist in keeping moisture or wind-blown debris off the lens and it protects the front barrel from the inevitable impacts against walls, door frames, and other real-life obstacles. Almost all EF and TS-E lenses have a Canon lens hood engineered specifically for it.Lens hoods are primarily designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering by extending and shading the end of the lens, ensuring no problems with vignetting or motor functions. Additionally, since the end of the lens is extended, you also get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact. Lens hoods match the specific focal length of the lens it was designed for.
This lens hood fits the following Canon lens:
- EF 50mm f1.8 II
