Comments about Adorama Adorama 52mm Metal Lens Hood:
I wanted a good metal lens hood to permanently leave on my new Nikon 50mm f/1.8 and this is it! I screwed this lens hood onto my lens and I never take it off, provides good protection at all times.
The inside of the lens hood is grooved to both reduce light bouncing around and also so you can use a lens cap.
I purchased a 58mm lens cap to go with this lens hood and it works great.
Comments about Adorama Adorama 52mm Metal Lens Hood:
Didn't care the the whimpy hood on the CV 40 f2 nor the miniscule lens cap.
Picked up this 52mm metal hood and a Tamron 58mm lenscap. It's great!
No vignette on FX, nice protection, best of both worlds. :)

Comments about Adorama Adorama 52mm Metal Lens Hood:
Works just like it should, but it is impossible to put the lens cap on with it on. It mostly sits in my camera bag.

Comments about Adorama Adorama 52mm Metal Lens Hood:
I bought 2 metal hoods, 52mm and 58mm, for my 35/2 and 50/1.4 canon lenses, after I open the box and screw the hood on lens, I found I cannot put the lens cap on the hood!!! That means I have to chose the hood or cap, but only one! What a design! I have never seen a lens hood like this. I have to leave the lens glass open to air if I screw it on?[...]
