Five euros, four bullets, one material

YRTIYO 58 mm, screw mount, plastic

Five euros for a 58 mm screw-on hood for the Canon 18-55 mm kit lens — four bullets, one of which is the word "plastic".

YRTIYO black plastic lens hood threaded onto a 58 mm kit lens

YRTIYO 58 mm, screw mount, plastic

Five euros for a 58 mm screw-on hood for the Canon 18-55 mm kit lens — four bullets, one of which is the word "plastic".

Shape
NOT STATED. Neither petal, tulip, flower nor cylindrical appears in four bullets — and shape is the first thing this shelf compares, because it decides whether a hood works on a zoom. A cylindrical hood sized for 55 mm vignettes at 18; a petal hood is cut away at the corners precisely so it does not
Lenses named
One lens and nine bodies: the Canon EF-S 18-55 mm, with EOS 4000D, 3000D, 2000D, 90D, 80D, 77D, 250D, 1500D and 1300D. Naming the lens is what matters — a hood belongs to a focal length, not to a camera — and the fourth bullet widens it to all 58 mm lenses, which is a different and looser claim
Fitting method
SCREW MOUNTING, in the second bullet, described as easy to install and remove. A screw hood threads into the filter ring, which means it occupies the thread a filter would use — and turns to a random orientation, which matters on any hood that is not cylindrical
Filter access
NOT ADDRESSED. With the hood in the filter thread, whether a filter can sit underneath or in front is the question this page leaves unanswered
Reversibility
NOT MENTIONED. A hood that reverses over the barrel travels in the bag; one that does not is carried separately or left at home
Material
PLASTIC — three words in the third bullet, and that is the whole entry. Plastic is normal at 5 €; the 18 € Canon on this shelf publishes nothing more specific

  • Five euros, the cheapest on this shelf, for the commonest kit lens there is
  • A screw mount, which cannot be knocked off like a bayonet
  • The shape is never stated, which is what this shelf is compared on

Best for: A Canon 18-55 mm kit lens that needs something over the front element for 5 €, used mostly at the long end.

On the listing

Four bullets, and one is a repetition of the title. A hood for Canon EOS 4000D, 3000D, 2000D, 90D, 80D, 77D, 250D, 1500D and 1300D DSLR cameras with the EF-S 18-55 mm; reduces flare, screw mounting, easy to install and remove; material: plastic; and compatibility with all 58 mm lenses.

Five euros, and the shape is missing

A hood for an 18-55 mm zoom lives or dies on its shape. Deep and cylindrical shades the long end and vignettes the wide one. The page never says which this is.

A thread, not a bayonet

It screws into the filter ring, which is cheaper and cannot be knocked loose — and it tightens wherever it stops, which only works if the hood is round.

Nine bodies, one lens

The lens is the useful half of that list. A hood fits a focal length and a thread; the camera behind it is irrelevant.

Plastic, in three words

At 5 € that is expected. The 18 € Canon on this shelf offers “durable, flexible, quality” and no material at all.

What a hood does that a filter cannot

It stops light that was never part of the picture from entering the lens at all. The hub above rates it above any filter for protecting the front element.

Availability

About 5 € on the German Amazon store when this page was last checked.

The American and British Amazon stores carry it too, priced in local currency. Those amounts are deliberately absent from the range above, which reads euro stores only.

On the French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores the asking prices sit more than 1.6× above the cheapest country. A difference that wide usually means a reshipper rather than a seller on the ground, so they are kept out of the figures above.

Everything in this section is the figure Keepa carried on the day of the last update to this page. Availability and prices shift without notice.

More lens hoods

  • K&F Concept petal lens hood showing its scalloped edges and matt inner surface

    K&F CONCEPT 58 mm petal, screw mount, matt interior

    A petal hood with a matt interior for 8 € — and a page that tells you it vignettes below 25 mm and will not take a filter underneath.

    Shape
    PETAL, in the title — the scalloped shape whose corners are cut away so a wide frame does not see them. It is the shape the hub above compares first, and it is the only page on this shelf to name it apart from the 11 € CAMKIX, which supplies one alongside two rubber hoods
    Lenses named
    NONE individually. The sixth bullet claims every 58 mm Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax, Olympus and Fuji lens — a thread rather than a lens, which is honest for a universal hood and less useful than the named Olympus of the 11 € JJC here. A petal hood on an unspecified lens is a compromise: the scallops are cut for one angle of view, not for all of them
    Fitting method
    SCREW MOUNTING, in the second bullet, described as more secure than the alternative. On a petal hood a screw mount is a real drawback: the scallops must align with the corners of the frame, and a thread stops wherever friction stops it
    Filter access
    REFUSED, and the page says so itself: the fourth bullet states it cannot be mounted together with a filter. That is the clearest statement on this shelf and a genuine limitation — a UV or polarising filter and this hood cannot both be on the lens
    Reversibility
    Not mentioned
    Material
    Not named. What IS named is the surface that matters: a MATT INTERIOR, in the fifth bullet, credited with preventing or limiting stray light from direct light on the front of the lens. A shiny hood interior reflects light into the lens and undoes the hood’s purpose
    Amazon reference
    B0D25DXNG2 (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
    EAN
    6942052528818
    • A petal shape, and a matt interior named as the reason it works
    • Two limits stated by the maker: 25 mm vignetting, and no filter underneath
    • A screw mount on a petal hood, which cannot be aligned reliably

    Best for: A 58 mm lens at 25 mm or longer, used without a filter, where a matt-lined petal hood for 8 € is the point.

  • CamKix set of two rubber collapsible hoods, a tulip hood and a lens cap

    CAMKIX Two rubber collapsible hoods plus a petal, 55 mm

    Eleven euros for two collapsible rubber hoods with three positions each, a tulip petal hood and a cap — the only hood here that can live on the lens permanently.

    Shape
    TWO, which is the point of the pack: two collapsible RUBBER hoods, cylindrical when extended, and one TULIP PETAL hood the fourth bullet names for wide-angle lenses, describing it as giving maximum shading without vignetting. Buying the two shapes together is how the shelf’s first question gets answered by having both
    Lenses named
    None individually — any 55 mm thread. The first bullet does the useful thing instead: it tells the buyer to verify the lens thread size before ordering and says the ⌀ value is on the front of the lens or under the cap
    Fitting method
    A thread, implied by 55 mm compatibility and never stated as such. On a rubber hood the thread matters less: the body flexes, so an imperfect orientation is absorbed
    Filter access
    Not addressed, though a cap is included — which suggests the cap fits the hood’s own front rather than the lens beneath it
    Reversibility
    SOMETHING BETTER: the third bullet describes a rubber hood that folds out in THREE STEPS for different levels of shading and collapses fully flat — so, in its own words, it can be left on the lens and is therefore always available. A hood that never comes off is a hood that gets used, which is the whole problem with hoods
    Material
    RUBBER for the two collapsible hoods, in the title and the first bullet. Rubber is the material that makes the three-step folding possible, and it also absorbs a knock that would crack ABS. The petal hood’s material is not named

    B07VH75Z98 (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
    EAN
    0711099327137
    • A rubber hood that collapses flat and can stay on the lens permanently
    • Three extension steps, so the shading suits the focal length in use
    • No individual lens named, so the petal’s scallops are cut for no particular angle

    Best for: A 55 mm lens used across a zoom range, where a hood that folds flat and never leaves the lens beats a deeper one left in a drawer.

  • Canon ES-68 lens hood, black, upright on a white surface

    Canon ES-68, for EF lenses — three bullets in total

    Eighteen euros for Canon’s own ES-68 hood, whose specification consists of three words — the emptiest page on this shelf and the only one from the lens maker.

    Shape
    NOT STATED. The ES-68 is Canon’s own cylindrical hood for its EF 50 mm f/1.8 STM, but nothing on the page says so — not the shape, not the lens, not the diameter
    Lenses named
    NONE. The title says "für EF Objektive" — for EF lenses — and the EF mount covers hundreds of lenses across thirty years, of which the ES-68 fits one. It is the loosest compatibility statement on this shelf, from the only maker on it that built the lens
    Fitting method
    Not stated. Canon’s ES-68 is a bayonet hood, and the page does not say
    Filter access
    Not addressed
    Reversibility
    Not mentioned — on a hood that does reverse over the barrel
    Material
    NOT NAMED. Three bullets exist: durable; flexible design; quality/durability. That is the whole listing, and not one of the three words is a specification

    EAN
    4549292037739
    • Canon’s own part, so the fit on the lens it was made for is exact
    • The part number ES-68 identifies it beyond doubt for anyone who knows it
    • Three bullets, none of which is a specification

    Best for: A Canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 STM, bought by part number because the page will not tell you anything else.

Elsewhere in the camera bag

  • K&F Concept 67 mm circular polariser held against a bright sky

    K&F CONCEPT 67 mm CPL, 18 layers, 5.3 mm frame

    Eighteen coating layers in a published 5.3 mm frame — the thinner of the two polariser frames on this shelf, for 18 €.

    Thread size
    67 mm, in the title, with the fifth bullet naming Canon, Nikon, Sony, Samsung and FUJIFILM lenses of that thread
    Type
    CIRCULAR — Zirkularer Polfilter — in the title and the third bullet. The hub above explains why that matters: a circular polariser leaves autofocus and metering intact on a modern body
    Light loss stated
    NOT STATED, as on all four polarisers here. Eighteen layers raise transmission; what the polarising element itself takes out is the figure the hub above asks for, and no page on this shelf gives it
    Coating description
    EIGHTEEN-fold coating on high-grade optical glass, in the third bullet, credited with reducing reflections and holding image quality in difficult light. The highest count on this shelf, matching the same maker’s UV filter
    Frame thickness
    PUBLISHED at 5.3 mm, in the fourth bullet, described as an ultra-slim aluminium frame that prevents vignetting even on wide-angle shots. It is the thinner of the two polariser frames published here — the 28 € NEEWER gives 5.9 mm — and the reason is stated rather than implied
    Rotation mechanism
    Not described. The frame thickness is published and how the ring turns is not
    Amazon reference
    B08HS3ZWYY (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
    EAN
    6942052508506
    • Five point three millimetres of frame, published with the reason: no vignetting on a wide lens
    • Eighteen coating layers, the highest count on this shelf
    • No light loss published

    Best for: A wide-angle or standard zoom at 67 mm where the frame has to stay out of the corners of the picture.

  • NiSi True Color CPL filter with its knurled frame and blackened glass edge

    NiSi True Color CPL, 77 mm, 20 layers, Cine Sealed

    A hundred and two euros for a polariser whose coating is sold on colour neutrality and whose glass edges are blackened and sealed against condensation.

    Thread size
    77 mm, in the title — the largest on this shelf, and the size the buying advice above says to standardise on, since a step ring brings it down to everything smaller
    Type
    CIRCULAR, in the title. The hub above puts circular versus linear first for a reason: only the circular kind leaves autofocus and metering working
    Light loss stated
    NOT STATED in stops. The first bullet claims 99.9 per cent of light reflections eliminated — the same figure the 28 € NEEWER here publishes — and the exposure penalty a polariser imposes is absent from all four pages on this shelf
    Coating description
    TWENTY layers, in the third bullet, including an ULTRA-LOW-REFLECTION layer specified at 0.2 PER CENT, with double-sided water- and oil-repellent coatings for easy cleaning and scratch resistance. Fewer layers than the thirty of the NEEWER; the difference on this page is what the coating is claimed to preserve rather than how many there are
    Frame thickness
    NOT PUBLISHED — the one number this page omits, at 102 €. The fifth bullet claims no vignetting even on wide-angle lenses and gives no millimetres, where the 18 € K&F publishes 5.3 mm and the 28 € NEEWER 5.9 mm. What IS named is a matt black interior coating in the second bullet, to absorb stray light inside the frame
    Rotation mechanism
    A KNURLED frame — gerändelter Rahmen — in the fifth bullet, described as giving grip for quick mounting and removal. That is about fitting rather than turning; the 28 € NEEWER here is the page that describes the rotation itself
    Amazon reference
    B09XQXPG3C (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
    EAN
    6972949374020
    • A coating sold on colour neutrality, with the yellow cast of other filters named as the problem
    • Cine Sealed blackened glass edges, credited with preventing condensation
    • No frame thickness published, at 102 €

    Best for: Work where the polariser must not tint the image — video graded across shots, or landscape work in mixed light — and where condensation on a cold morning is a real risk.

  • PROfezzion 58 mm circular polariser with its rotating ring and case

    PROfezzion 58 mm CPL, twelve layers

    Twelve coating layers on a 58 mm circular polariser for 16 € — from a page whose fourth bullet gives the thread as 52 mm and explains where to check it.

    Thread size
    58 mm in the title — AND 52 mm in the fourth bullet, which says the filter fits any lens with a 52 mm thread. The same bullet then explains, usefully, that the correct size is printed on the lens after a ⌀ symbol. The title and the part number PF-58CPL agree on 58; the bullet is the odd one out, and the ⌀ on the lens settles it
    Type
    CIRCULAR, in the title and throughout. The hub above treats circular versus linear as the first question: a circular polariser keeps autofocus and metering working on a modern camera, and a linear one does not
    Light loss stated
    NOT STATED. A polariser costs light — commonly one and a half to two stops — and no page on this shelf publishes the figure. The hub above asks for it in stops, and four filters here leave it out
    Coating description
    TWELVE layers, multi-coated, in the third bullet, credited with reducing reflection and named for outdoor and landscape work over water, sky and plants. The same count as the maker’s UV filter on this site
    Frame thickness
    Not published — where the same maker publishes 3 mm on its UV filter. On a polariser the frame is necessarily thicker, because it has to rotate, and that makes the missing figure more significant rather than less
    Rotation mechanism
    Not described. A polariser is used by turning it, and how the ring turns — knurled, geared, stiff, smooth — is the whole ergonomics of the thing. The 28 € NEEWER on this shelf describes straight knurling and smooth rotation; this page is silent

    B093247YD6 (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
    EAN
    6940202350500
    • Twelve multi-coating layers, on named Japanese glass in an aviation-aluminium frame
    • A bullet that explains where the thread size is printed, after the ⌀ symbol
    • The title says 58 mm and the fourth bullet says 52 mm

    Best for: A 58 mm lens used over water and foliage, where twelve coating layers for 16 € matter more than a published stop figure.
