Had to purchase this as the 3rd party hood did not fit. The hood should have come with the lens. The Nikon brand fits perfect.

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

The 80-200mm f/2.8 Nikon is an excellent lens that should include a hood as standard equipment. It is somewhat irritating that one has buy one in the after market. While it appears to perform adequately, there always is the suspicion that this hood is slightly too short... this compared with what is being offered with newer equipment.

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

I bought the Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens when my daughter started dance and didn't realize at the time of purchase that I wouldn't be able to find the lens hood locally. Well I had another lens in my cart and decided it was time to get the lens hood and added that to my purchase as well. It's an inexpensive item, but yet one that will be on my lens everytime I use it. I am thrilled to have this lens hood just in time for major dance competition photo opportunities!

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

This is a great product. Im glad I bought it for my Nikon AF-D 80-200. Its great to cover your lens from direct sunlight. Also great as a lens protector, although chances are that the hood is gonna break before the lens. My lens is a solid piece of rock.

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

Shouldn't be a separate purchase - should come included with the lens. That being said, it does exactly what it is supposed to do .. oh .. and makes the lens seem about three feet longer!

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

This hood will help keep stray light from entering lens and causing flares,ghosts and low contrast when shooting toward the sun. Brushed metal appearance matches lens barrel and provides an extra layer of physical protection for your lens.

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

It's a hood. It prevents stray light. It protects the lens from bumps. It's a piece of plastic. What else can be said?

Ah, while lightweight, it's bulky. So it has to be on the lens, or have a big pouch available in your backpack/bag to store it when not in use. A bit cumbersome.

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

If you own the Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 ED AF-D lens or are buying one then you will have to purchase this hood for it.(Nikon doesn't include it with the lens) This is a high quality lens hood that will not only shield the lens from stray light but will also protect it from getting damaged. Don't even look at second party hoods, this is the one.

Comments about Nikon Nikon HB-7 Bayonet Lens Hood for 80-200mm f/2.8 ED D-AF Lens:

If you own the 80-200 f/2.8 lens this lens hood is a MUST. It's hard to believe that Nikon doesn't package this with the lens.....I find this lens hood much more important than the lens case that Nikon provides.
