Everything is great with this product. It is very needed...I had a lot of lens flare before I purchased this product. Since I have been using the lens hood, my pictures are coming out so much better due to cutting out the flare. Highly recommend.
The 50mm/1.4 definitively needs a lens hood more so to prevent flares than for protection. I've had some bad experiences with flares on this lens. This one does an excellent job of preventing flares.

Really helps with the contrast, also with flare prevention in bright sunlight.
