Questions & Answers

CSD Naptown C : Could one consider this EW-60C II an acceptable alternate to the original EW-60C (barrel-style hood) for a EF28-80 4-5.6 II USM?ANDREW R : Canon specifies fit only with the EF 24 f/2.8
Shopper : Will this fit a EFS 55-250mm lens?JAMES O : Lense hoods are designed specifically for the configuration of the internal glass, the EFS is not a full frame and thus perhaps it would mechanically fit, i would be extremely apprehensive to use it. You could encounter some abnormal light refractions. Jim O.CHRIS G : Yes....it is a 58mm fitting same as the EFS 55-250mm 4-5.6...but the recommended hood for that lens is the ET-60 IIDAVID B : I do not know; that seems like a better question for Canon to answer. I can tell you that I own and use mine for the Canon 24mm f/2.8 which is what it is designed for. I do not own a crop-sensor camera, nor the 55-250mm lens of which you speak (Canon EFS lens are designed for crop-sensor cameras). My guess is that even if it did fit on the lens; the pedals on the hood (designed for a 24mm lens) would not be enough to block-out stray side-light; even when used at the 55mm setting. Sorry, but Canon CS should be able to answer this one better. -David
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?CONRAD C : every lens should have a hood on it.STEVEN H : bought a used lens that came without one.

Canon Lens hood

Does what it is suppose to do!

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.

  • Shades the lens from stray light, improving your contrast and image quality
  • Helps to keep moisture or wind-blown debris off the lens in inclement weather
