It doesn't fit very well on the Canon 85mm f1.8. I wish I had purchased the OEM hood instead.

The hood has to be wrestled into place, and once there, its clips don't fit properly into the groove on the lens, so it's not locked into place and is easily knocked off the lens by any minor jostling.

Useless. A $5 rubber screw-on would be better.

clips looks weak and breakable...difficult to install every time ...but it's the only choice you have since the canon hood is on back order from the Mfr. for more than 4 months...anyway,,install it carefully,be gentle with the clips and everything will be fine ..it will do the purpose.

Clip broke 1 day past 14 day returnable date. Hood is difficult to install, must be forced over the lens. Would definitely go with Canon brand.

Great to see Adorama providing a reasonably priced alternative to what Canon should be providing as part of the cost of a lens. Works great and does the job at a significantly lower price. Kudos to Adorama!
