This review is from: Olympus LH-55 Lens Hood for Olympus 50mm f/2.0 Lens (Electronics)

When I ordered the Olympus prime macro lens the usual recommendations for similar products came up. The first recommended product was the hood for this lens so I thought yep best order that. When I received everything in the mail, the Olympus prime lens CAME with a lens hood. So now I have two. I can't be bothered to go through the tedious process of sending it back so I will use it as a back up. The hood is what it is and does what it is supposed to do. I can't really say more than that really. Amazon needs to enhance their recommendations a bit so people don't end up buying things they don't need.
