I like it and serves its purpose very well.

Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2015

This lens hood fit my lens perfectly. Stays very secure when mounted. I like that it can be reversed on the lens so it doesn't protrude when I put it in my camera bag. It is wide enough on the inside diameter to easily put on and take off the lens cap. It fits over lens filters with no problems.

Nice Loose hood

Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2015

Verified Purchase

Very surprising that an original Nikon hood would fit so loose. Maybe $5.00 knock off is good enough. Disappointing. This is a revised review. The lens hood was loose because it needs to be snapped in at the end of the twist. It is very hard to snap into, but with a little force it will snap into it's final place. Many people may not know this. Just FYI.

Fits much better than the cheap aftermarket lens hoods.

I've tried a coupe of different cheap aftermarket lens hoods, and all of them suffered from the same problem. They fall off at the slightest touch. I was hesitant to purchase a genuine Nikon HB-69 Lens Hood because I think it's way overpriced. I decided to give in and purchase it though because my other ones were practically useless. I'm happy with the purchase. It fits much better and doesn't fall off on its own. It is overpriced, but it does its job.

Great lens hood

The plastic is thicker than Nikons at one third of the price

Fits perfectly.

This lens hood fits my Nikon AF-P DX Nikkor Zoom 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR kit lens perfectly. It seems sturdy but you could break it if you are not careful. Don't bump it on something hard like rock or metal.

its loose and can easily fall off

Functional, but due to the fact it doesn't screw on, its loose and can easily fall off.

Snaps into place, cuts glare, protects lens

Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2017

Verified Purchase

One of the main reasons I bought this was to prevent anything from touching the camera lens, which It definitely does.

It attached well to my d3300, and satisfyingly snaps into place.

Unlike a non-Nikon lens hood that I tried previously, it is not visible with my stock lens when fully zoomed out.

The "tulip" flares out a little away from the camera, but is still narrow enough to fit into my camera bag.

Would give five stars if it felt a bit more rugged, but I expect it to hold up plenty well.

Excellent Addition

Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2016

Verified Purchase

Works well for eliminating/minimizing lens flare. I didn't have the problems some people have stated about installation, but it would have been nice if the mount had a more positive "click" when the hood was locked in place.

DO NOT USE the references here for selecting the correct the lens hood for your lens, use Nikons website. This saved me from purchasing the wrong lend hood per the recommendations here. Nikon listed the correct hood for my lens and I made a quick, easy purchase for 1/3 ~ 1/4 the price.
