Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS USM Lens (EW-73B):
This lens hood works OK but the hood does not retain its position on the lens very well. Although it fits kinda snug it locks in place very loosly and rotates off easily. Bottom line is that it works OK and is worth the [$] as long as you double check its position every once in a while. It is not the best lens hood by far, but for the price it does its job very well.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS USM Lens (EW-73B):
Not quite as thick as the name brand piece but it works fine for half the price. If you need something more rugged go with the name brand item.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS USM Lens (EW-73B):
Purchased the Adorama lens hood for the Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS USM Lens. Works great. Don't spend the extra money to get the Canon version.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS USM Lens (EW-73B):
This is the perfect hood for my lens. It provides the proper light entry while cutting out excessive corner light. It reverses easily so it can be stored right on the lens with out increasing the length.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS USM Lens (EW-73B):
This hood feels a little flimsy and the mount doesn't feel exactly right but it works just as well as any other brand. You can mount it backwards on the lens for storage. For the price it's a good buy.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS USM Lens (EW-73B):
For less than half the price of the OEM Canon version its great, it is better than the non canon specific models because it actually fits the lens tabs. It however does not feel as strong as the OEM canon. and has a little "loose" feel to it. overall it is worth the money.
