Great accessory and well made.

As alway the Olympus / OM Systems gear is solid, well made and delivers. It is also pricey sometimes for what the items is. I am very happy with the product and do not regret the extra money to get something that is well made and reliable. However this probably should have come with the lens.

I purchased a cheaper after market metal lens hood, the gloss black interior produces glare. Don't waste your time and money, purchase the LH-48 you won't regret it.

I purchased the Olympus LH-48B black lens hood for my 17mm 1.8. It is a marvel of a design made of hefty metal. The screw fit adjustment has an internal metal ring that compresses on the outer part of the lens and leaves no marks, it's strong enough to lift the lens and body. The outer part of the hood is gloss black and matches the color of the black lens. The inner part of the hood is painted flat black to reduce glare. The hood is reverseable and you can shoot with the lens reversed, but you can't use the lens manual focus ring. The hood also fits over the lens cap and my Hoya 46mm UV filter. With my small fingers I can remove the lens cap, but to preserve the flat black paint from fingernail scratches I recommend removing the lens cap first, reverse the hood and remount the cap...takes about 4-seconds. The black hood looks professional on the black 17mm 1.8 metal lens, and OM-D Em-10 Mk II silver body. I get quite a few compliments when I'm photographing or when the camera is just hanging on my shoulder with the black tap & dye leather strap. I photograph 90% with the 17mm. -Tom

Essential but Costly

m.Zuiko 17mm f/1.8 is a beautiful and small lens, and Olympus designed a lens hood with the same metal finish to extend its silhouette. It is effective to cut the stray light and the inside is has matte finish to lessen the reflection. The only downside is the cost. There are other cheaper options out there, but if you can afford it and wants the same luxurious feel of Olympus Premium lens, then this is the way to go.

Perfect fit and finish

Tried the aftermarket and they failed. The Olympus hood is perfect. Excellent finish and stays tight. A little pricey but if you use a hood this is the way to go.

Great quality hood

It's a lens hood. All metal, very good quality but a bit expensive for what it is.

Pricey but beautiful

I really do not know how people priced it, but this is expensive. One can buy a hood easily for below $10. For some unknown reasons I wanted this hood, and I cannot say I am disappointed. This is a beautifully designed piece of metal, and it feels good in my hand or on the 17/1.8 lens. It also fixes itself very well on the lens using the screw that applies pressure on the circular clamp that surround the lens. I guess people would want to buy it more for aesthetic reasons than for practical ones. I do not regret buying it.
