Re: Are you using original lens hoods?

Different for all my lenses.

Canon:
24f2.8IS and 35f2IS I use canon clones from amazon.
24-105f4 I use the hood from a version 1 24f1.4L. It's narrower than the new one.
70-200f4 screw in straight tele hood, plastic. Again much narrower Than the huge canon version.
100macroL canon hood it comes with.

Sigma 50f1.4 last version. Screw in metal hood again because it's both deeper and narrower than the hood it came with.

Canon hoods are nothing to write home about.
