Canon ET-124 Lens Hood for RF 100-300 

The Canon ET-124 Lens Hood is a dedicated lens hood designed for the Canon RF 100-300mm f/4.5-7.1L IS USM lens. This lens hood is specifically tailored to fit the unique design and dimensions of the RF 100-300mm lens, providing optimal shading and protection against unwanted stray light and lens flare.

Lens hoods are essential accessories for photographers and videographers as they help improve image quality by preventing glare and reducing the impact of stray light on the lens. By effectively blocking light from entering the lens at certain angles, a lens hood minimizes the risk of lens flare and ghosting, thus enhancing contrast and color saturation in images.

The Canon ET-124 Lens Hood is a petal-shaped hood, also known as a tulip hood, which is a popular design for modern lenses. The petal shape allows for maximum coverage while minimizing vignetting at wider focal lengths. It is made of durable, high-quality plastic material that is both lightweight and sturdy, providing reliable protection for the lens without adding unnecessary weight or bulk.

Attaching the lens hood is a quick and straightforward process. It securely mounts onto the front of the RF 100-300mm lens using a bayonet-style connection, ensuring a snug and stable fit. Once attached, the lens hood stays firmly in place, providing consistent shading and protection during shooting sessions.

Apart from its primary function of preventing unwanted light from entering the lens, the Canon ET-124 Lens Hood also offers additional benefits. It acts as a physical barrier, shielding the front lens element from accidental bumps, scratches, and fingerprints. This protection helps to extend the lifespan of the lens and preserve its optical performance over time.

When not in use, the lens hood can be conveniently reversed and mounted on the lens in a reversed position. This storage method saves space and allows for easy transport without the need for additional carrying cases or pouches.

The Canon ET-124 Lens Hood is an official Canon accessory, designed and manufactured to the highest standards. As an original Canon product, it is specifically optimized for use with the RF 100-300mm lens, ensuring compatibility and seamless integration. Using genuine Canon accessories like the ET-124 Lens Hood guarantees a reliable and consistent experience, maintaining the performance and image quality expected from Canon lenses.
