Q: 4. Is the description backwards? This looks like it allows one to use a 72mm filter on a 67mm lens. Why would you use a filter that is smaller than the lens?

A: The description is correct; a step-down ring allows you to use smaller filters on larger-diameter lenses. There are a few reasons as to why, for example, to save on the cost of buying filters again if you already own a lot of them in the smaller size. Also, if the lenses have a very narrow field-of-view, the visible vignette might not be significant and not influence the photo that much.

Q: 5. will this lens hood be visible in the photos using the Tamron 24-70mm? Im not sure if at wide angle will show the hood.

A: I'm using the 77mm version of this hood on a Nikon D300s with the Nikkor 24-70 f/2.8G zoom lens, and there's no absolutely trace of vignetting at all. Note that the D300s is a half-frame DX camera and thus has a narrower effective field of view. If you're using a full-frame camera, you can tape some heavy paper around your lens that extends 22mm past the lens's filter-mounting ring to be sure that there will be no vignetting on your particular camera/lens combination.

Q: 6. Does it come in something to store it in?
