Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this hood for use with a DX-format Nikon 18-55mm VR lens (27-82mm film equivalent) to accommodate it's relatively large magnification range. The hood threads on easily, and still provides threads on the front end for attaching more filters if you choose to keep the hood on all the time. The hood is easily adjustable into 3 positions, which is a nice feature. I found that when the hood is pulled all the way back and I have another filter attached, I see some vignetting on the wide end (f < ~30mm). If I remove the filter, it's all good. So if you're a "no protective filter" type, this is a moot point. But, if you're accustomed to having a protective filter in place, you'll need to remove it to avoid vignetting for wide-angle shots with this hood. For normal to telephoto lengths, this hood is great, and should be no problem with additional filters in place - you should always be able to adjust the hood length to accommodate.

Opteka rubber lens hoods are primarily designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of the lens. In addition, since the end of the lens is extended you also get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact.
