The dedicated Vello EW-60CT Lens Hood is specifically designed for use with Canon's EF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6, II, III, IV, V & EF 28-90mm lenses. It is primarily used to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of it. A dedicated hood is crafted to perfectly suit the specific focal length of the lens it is designed for. Additionally, this hood features a non-glare matte finish on the interior surface to further prevent or limit lens flare. Also, since the end of the lens is extended, you get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact.

The "petal" shape of this lens hood maximizes the amount of hood coverage for the minimum amount of weight and hood area. The bayonet mount is designed to also work in the reversed position, allowing the hood to be placed backwards over the lens for a more compact storage solution.

Q: 8. Do you have to remove the lens shade after each use? Also, why are there slits in the shade itself?

Q: 9. Will this attach to my Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro lens?

A: No, it will not. The Vello ET-65 III Lens Hood is not compatible for use with the Canon 100mm F/2.8L EF IS USM Macro Lens; it is only compatible with the Canon 100mm f/2 EF USM lens, the Canon 85mm f/1.8mm EF USM lens, the Canon 135mm f/2.8 EF with Softfocus lens, and the Canon 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 EF USM lens. If you are looking for the correct Vello lens hood for use on the 100mm f/2.8L EF IS USM Macro lens, the Vello ET-73 Dedicated Lens Hood, B&H # VELHCET73, would instead be the right option for your needs.

Q: 10. When attached on the Sony FE 28-60 mm, can the lens be put in the retracted position ?
