It works as intended.

The 52mm Wide-Angle Rubber Lens Hood works as intended. Since the hood is designed to work with wide-angle lenses, I use this lens hood on my Nikkor 28 & 35mm lenses. I do not any issues with lint, because I don't put my camera in a linty place, if a piece of lint finds its way onto the lens hood; I would break out the anti-static brush and swish it away.

Hood is very good quality

This is not a rigid hoot, but flexible, and flexible enough to put into various states of expansion.
