Jessops Rubber Lens Hood 55MM

Very good value for the money

Easy to fold back, cheap ok at longer focal lengths.

Unfortunately it shows on the edge of my pictures when used at shorter focal lengths.

For a beginner like me in DSLR photograph I find this Hood practical easy to use and effective. Why spend more?

Its rubber and it will wear and loose its shape and elasticity but then you can replace it.

Does what it says on the box, stops excessive light from entering the camera lenses. it works great!

Easy to use

Must be removed for flash
