Adorama lost a customer here. Its for Point and Shoot not DSLRs and they don't say that. Since its a free shipping item they deduct the price of shipping from your refund and PayPal takes a cut of they refund and you have to send it back. Basically get only 20-25% of what I spent back. I'm pretty bummed out on this.

Nice Lens Hood. Works Great. Makes your camera look pro! You fit your filters behind the lens hood if you have any, then you connect your filters to your camera lens. Very Easy. You can even put your lens cap in front of lens hood. Overall nice price. And at Adorama is the cheapest and best place to buy this at.

Comments about Adorama Adorama 58mm Wide Angle Digital Lens Hood - Petal Shaped:

Biggest problem is that you can not also use a filter with this hood. It screws on where the filter goes, then no other threads for filter.

Well Made But Didn't Work With My Lens

Comments about Adorama Adorama 58mm Wide Angle Digital Lens Hood - Petal Shaped:

Though billed as a shade for wide angle applications, it did not work on a Canon Powershot Pro 1. It produced a small but noticeable vignette at full WA (24mm). The vignetting disappeared around 35 or 40mm. I also tried the equivalent lens hood from Fotodiox, but it was the same. Found an old Vivtar WA rubber hood and it works perfectly. I can recommend this hood if your lens is not too wide.
