|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Canon 400mm 2.8 lens hood dimensions David Scriven, Photographer Rochford | Essex | United Kingdom | Posted: 12:40 PM on 04.18.11 ->> Hi, Does anyone know the dimensions of various lens hoods for the different models of Canon 400mm 2.8 lens or where I can find the details? I have the first model of the 400mm and the hood has seen better days and I've patched it up as much as I can. I can get a replacement one secondhand for a decent price but it is for the IS model and I wondered if there was any variation in the diameter of the lenses before I jump in an purchase it? Any help appreciated. David  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

You should take a look at the AquaTech soft hood. I have heard good things about them. http://www.adorama.com/AQTLH600.html  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
