Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM (ET-67):
It's a good hood, gets the job done, for the price savings from the Canon brand, it's worth getting this one. It's just plastic so don't expect it to be exquisite quality, but it doesn't really need to be. Maybe a little wobbly on the end of the lens but not too bad. However, the picture on the Adorama website makes it look like the Adorama name is on the hood, it's not. Not a big deal but I thought it looked cool when I saw it online and was a little disappointed when it arrived. (That's kind of false advertising, Adorama.)Still a good hood though

Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM (ET-67):
A well made hood. You know how the saying goes "you get what you pay for" in this case you really do. You can buy a knock off for $10.00 less but if you were to look at the knockoff and Canon side by side there are stark differences in quality, the canon hood is a much thicker plastic so it is more durable. The color of the plastic is even better on the Canon hood, it is black where the knockoff's tend to be an off color black (black with a kind of greenish tinge to them) cheap dye pigment. The biggest and difference is that Canon coats the inside of the hoods with a non reflective felt. You say so what but why are you considering buying a hood in the first place? To stop stray light from coming in from the side of the lens. Well with out the felt the knockoff's tend to have the light bounce off of the insides of the hood, end result crapy images. Spend the extra dollars you wont regret it.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM (ET-67):
This hood is identical to the Canon product and, being very sturdy, it'll perform the same function
However, it doesn't carry any dot or fitting point towards the lens, so putting it to the lens is a guessing thing. Also, it fits very tight whereas all original Canon hoods fit very nicely.
Other than that, it's an OK product.
