3.0 out of 5 stars Does the job fine, but DON'T BUY IT FOR THE 55-200mm f4-5.6G ED AF-S DX!, December 16, 2007
By David Jenks "dsjjfg" (Elk Grove, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Okay, this lens hood is fine. Terrific.

BUT...the 55-200mm f4-5.6G ED AF-S DX COMES WITH THIS ITEM! Don't "take advantage" of Amazon's "Better Together" offer for the lens:

"Buy this item with Nikon HB-34 Lens Hood for 55-200mm DX Nikkor Lens by Nikon today!"

Because then you'll own TWO of these.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good choice, February 6, 2009
I wish this would come with the 55-200 VR, and not only the 55-200.

The hood supplied with the VR model is nice, but everyone loves the petal hood ;-).

Highly recommended, and it looks good too ;-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, November 12, 2008
Well it is Nikon so it has to be quality. I tried a knock-off version before that would not stay on. This one works perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good hood for 18mm+ lenses
I purchased this lens hood for a 55-200mm Nikkor, however this petal hood can work as wide as 18mm (it appears to be made exactly for an 18mm). Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Don't need to buy with 55-200 VR
If you're like me, you may buy this unnecessarily. The 55-200 DX VR already comes with a hood, but this is listed as a recommended accessory with lens by Amazon. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Not necessary
The specs for the nikon telephoto lens did not mention that it already came with a lens shade included, so I ordered this one. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good hood
This is a good lens. I prefer it to the HB-32 lens. The only downside is that it doesn't mount on the lens in reverse for storage. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensible to Control Glare
Eliminates glare from camera flash and other direct light sources without causing the vignetting of a full round hood. Only effective on lenses with internal rotation.

3.0 out of 5 stars CornFused Here...
I recently purchased the 55-200mm lens from Ritz via Amazon. I did not get this lens hood, instead I got the HB-37. Now, I'm not sure what the real difference is. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Amazon poor marketing
This was a very disappointing purchase for me. Due to Amazon's poor marketing, they offered this lens cover along with the Nikkor 55-200mm lens for an additional price. Read more
