Are you using original lens hoods?

Re: Are you using original lens hoods?

I have tried a few 3rd party hoods but now only use Canon. Here is why I don't like 3rd party hoods...

1) they don't fit as well (sometimes too tight, sometimes too loose)

2) they are made from cheaper, thinner plastic

3) they don't look as nice (unpainted black plastic)

4) they almost never have interior "flocking" or "fuzz"
