Original ULHgo Ultimate Lens Hood - DSLR Camera Lens Anti Reflection Camera Accessory - Foldable Rubber Lens Protector - Fits 49mm - 82mm Lens Filter Thread - Photography Gifts - From Kickstarter

First of all, the item itself is top notch. Well made, fits lenses perfectly, doesn't leak lite. So if you are looking for a similar thing - think no more.But I tried it several time on different occasions and I have to admit it just useless. And it's not because the item is low quality, it's just the whole idea of this kind of shade is useless.But, once again, if you think you need one - this item is great on it's own.

It's a very good idea and works quite well. But it is difficult stretch the hood over a 72mm lens, never mind 82mm! You couldn't possibly do it with one hand. Also the hood is a bit too loose and floppy, so it can be slightly awkward to position it such the the edges are sealed all the way round.

The idea is a good one; a ginormous hood you can use to block out reflections when photographing through windows, or into fishtanks, etc. But in order to accomplish that, the front of the hood either needs to be stiff enough to support itself, or needs to rely upon suction to stick to the surface. It does neither. The hood is intentionally floppy to make it easy to pack away, so the front of the hood isn't stiff. However, any suction effect requires the window/fishtank/glass and the front of the hood to be perfectly clean, and for the hood to make a perfect seal around the lens. This isn't really possible in real-world scenarios. Worse, if the hood is intended to rely upon suction, that also requires the air inside the hood to be completely clean, with no risk of any dust. If there is any dust trapped in the hood, then depending on the lens design and where the hood is attached, its possible that dust could be forced into the lens itself, never to escape.So in short, its a great idea, but there are too many factors to make it viable.

First off this is stupidly overpriced in a hobby that already is wallet busting. I bought this for twenty quid based on the fact that it's 'original' and apparently very good. In reality you are getting a bit of folded rubber that probably cost a few pence to make. Really.Don't get me wrong, it is a nicely presented bit of rubber but the money is not justified and now having got one I reckon I should have plumped for a generic cheaper one at a few pounds.Of course the reason it is more expensive is because it's supposed to be the best of this type but, honestly? I'm not sure. The idea is so simple that pretty much anything that is similar will work. Not only that I have a nagging suspicion that a similar product that's a bit firmer will work better.The actual hood is quite floppy and won't hold it's own shape. When you rest against a window that means it won't seal firmly against it leaving usually a gap at the bottom. You can of course close this up with your hand, but sometimes that's not practical. For instance my wife uses this set up on her camera in the kitchen looking out over a closely located bird feeder. She sneaks up and uses a remote button to take the photo so cannot hold the hood flat against the window by hand or the birds will fly off. And because of that sometimes there is a bit of light pollution from the open bottom.A firmer hood would be able to be pressed against the window with the weight of camera and tripod.Bottom line is that this can work, is foldable and thus portable but, isn't as good as the advertising makes out and is stupidly expensive for what it is.

Works just as advertised, and fits well onto my camera (Canon 200D). Only used it around the house to test it out and it's great, can't wait to use it properly. The little travel bag is perfect too as I'll be taking it along with me whenever I have my camera.

If you use any lens btw 12 and 16 is not wide enough the rubber even though you keep the lens to the window/glass

Does the job. At first I thought it needed to be thicker, but having used it, it’s fine. Images came out really well. Use it with my canon EF 16-35mm f2.8 lens on 16mm

I’ve been following this product since it first launched through Kickstarter and am glad to see it has made it on to Amazon!The ULHgo fits easily onto my dslr lenses and does exactly what it is designed to do... plus a few extras.I have only had a couple of opportunities so far but the ULH excels at completely removing reflective glare when shooting through building windows and also aquarium fish tanks, and from the looks of the website fighter jet canopies too!Also worked backwards as a pretty good splash guard while shooting at the coast!10/10 would highly recommend.
