I can't seem to fit the EW-60F on my 32mm 1.4. Then again, maybe it was because it's a 3rd party. But shouldn't 3rd parties be designed to be physically same in dimensions with the original? Fits my 18-150mm no problem though.
I'm going to assume the 3rd Party hoods are designed almost the same way. A real (Canon) one cost me about $29. Line the lens hood up so it's evenly placed against the lens and ready to be mounted. Then apply even pressure so the entire rim of the hood using your open hand on the hood petals until the hood rim comes in contact with the lens mount surface. Then maintain pressure while rotating the hood to the locked (final) position. There will be a "click" sensation when it reaches the locked position (which confirms that it is completely in place).
.
The first few times you do this, it's an extremely TIGHT fit. This loosens over time due to constant pressure on the hood-mount clasps. There is no risk to the lens itself since the pressure is only being applied to the lens barrel itself and not the lens elements or even the interior assembly. The "click" sensation is still there many months later and though the mount process with the hood becomes looser and easier.
.
The first time i tried to mount the lens hood, I put it on crooked. The next few times it was so stiff that I was worried I wouldn't be able to complete the task.
