In addition, since the end of the lens is extended, you also get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact.Dedicated lens hoods, such as the ET-65B, are designed to match the specific focal length of the lens it was designed for.>> Compatible with the following Canon lenses: Canon EF 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 DO IS USM Lens

Customer Reviews

Good price, required a bit of work.
As my original Canon lens hood had been broken (entirely through my own fault), I couldn't justify the expense of another Canon brand lens when the Precision Design on Amazon looked to be an exact replacement. The item was shipped quickly, and on initial inspection, looked to be 'equal' to the Canon item. However, as soon as I tried to put it on the lens, it was obvious something wasn't quite the same. The two small friction clips inside the hood immediately popped out. I eventually managed to secure them via two tiny drops of super-glue, and it now works perfectly. However, I've no real idea if this is a permanent solution or not.

For being just a hood...
...it does its job. I'm using the ET-67B with the Canon EF-S 60mm macro lens.

pros

- sturdy
- finish matches Canon SLR body
- lower cost

cons

- the fit isn't very snug, it jiggles a wee bit

lens hood
I bought this for my EF-S 70-300 for use on my Canon XSi, it works great and is a fraction of the cost of other similar hoods.
