Good Hood

It works well for a wide angle lens, no vignetting. It works very well with a Circular Polarizer on the lens first then the hood. The hood will rotate the Polarizer, & since its round, not petal shaped - the shade is not changed. Of course, a screw in hood is the only way to still have a hood if you use a step up ring (if you don't want to buy filters for every size lens). The threads on the ring are clean and well machined. It seems well made.

Big improvement

I'm not a big fan of the plastic bayonet-mounted lens hoods that are supplied by manufacturers. I much prefer screw-in metal hoods. This one is perfect, and priced right.
