Customer Review: Does the job.
Summary: 4 Stars
After purchasing a 17-40L lens I learned that with the 1.6 crop body cameras, the stock hood for that lens didn't work very well to prevent flare. So I did a little research and found that this hood would work for it and cause no vignetting. This is true, after months of use, I have not had any issues with vignetting and also less issues with flare than I would have expected with the stock lens hood.
I only have a few complaints. This hood fits really tightly on the lens hood mount. It is to be expected that it wouldn't be perfect since this is a third party manufacturer. Also, unlike the canon hoods, this one doesn't have the felt lined interior which leads you to feeling it is of lower quality, but it is a matte finish on the inside.
Overall, it saves you around 20 dollars to forgo purchasing the canon brand, but you might find yourself wishing you had gotten the other one if the tight fit and build quality become issues for you.
Description of Adorama Dedicated Lens Hood for Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens (EW-83J)
One of the most important accessories for each lens you own. A lens hood provides multiple functions: it shades the lens from stray light, improving your contrast and image quality; in inclement weather, it can assist in keeping moisture or wind-blown debris off the lens; and it protects the front barrel from the inevitable impacts against walls, door frames, and other real-life obstacles.Lens Accessories
