My SX40 has non-OEM UV filter + larger-sized lens cap this requires. Will this hood fit my set-up and go on and off easily? Hard to store with hood on

It will fit the sx40 quite adeptly, but I don't think it will work with a filter installed. Attachment and removal is simple; the hood locks onto the lens via the two notches on the area around the lens cap. There should be no difficulty in storage as the hood installs backwards over the lens. I hope this helps.

Kay, sounds like you may have lost your original hood? If so, and it were me, I would order the 58mm filter lens adapter and the 58mm lens hood and tethered lens cap. That way you are not only replacing the hood but making possible to use standard lens filters in the camera. The hood that comes with the camera doesn't allow for this. The adapter has come down in price on Amazon. Then get a set of filters.

You must buy a 58mm lens cap because the original one only fits the 52mm lens that is on the Canon SX50. But, with the 58mm UV filter on there really isn't any good reason to place a lens cap over it. A major reason to have the UV lens is to protect the camera's lens and it does. I have had several cameras and never used the lens cap -- only a UV filter to protect the camera lens. Hope you enjoy thye great Canon SX50. It is amazing with its 50x magnification.

this is the only thing u need. i attach my 52mm hood to it. But u first need to remove the ring around the camera (that is on by default that comes with the camera) then attach this to it. Hope that helps. It also means u cannot use the camera lens cap that came with it.

I have a Sony HX 300 The lens hood will not fit tightly to the the lens and is prone to fall off

yes you can. The lens cap is designed i such a manner that it can be easily put in or off while the lens hood is attached. Also you can use the filter, the cap and the hood all together.

Mine is 49imm lens cap. and the hood is used on a Fuji X100s. The stock ring that orig comes attached to the Fuji X must be removed first for this hood to fit, but it works great, solid and really protects the lens.

It will fit the lens itself, not the filter, so you would first put the lens hood on then the filter on the lens hood. Hoped this helped you!

No, the SX40 is 52mm so if you want to use a 58mm filter then you require and adapter that is 52mm thread on the end that attaches to the camera and 58mm thread on the other end to attach the 58mm filter. As for this particular item that you are looking at I did buy it for the filter only as the lens isn't very good, its a definite you get what you pay for thing. However Goja sells the adapter by itself and its pretty cheap, I bought an adapter for each filter I own because if you torque this even a bit too much it gets stuck to the lens and well that can mess up a shoot if you are required to changed filters for any reason or if the lens gets scratched and you want to replace it.

It should fit just fine, but I would save your money and not get this product. The lenses are not very good and the adapter and filters and hood have limited use.

Yes, this lens cap will fit the sx40 HS. I lost my original Canon lens cap and replaced it with this same lens cap.

The Fotodiox Lens Hood fits perfectly on my 18-55mm Nikkor lens. I have not had any problems with it.

I purchased this for my Canon SX40HS. Fits great. I keep it on my camera all the time. When not in use, i put it on backwards so my camera will it fits in my case.

I Couldnt tell about filters, but what I can tell you is that is a headache to keep de lens cap in place while using this hood...

I don't use a UV filter, I use this hood after I take the lens cap off so I don't accidentally touch the lens...

Of course, the camera body isn't a factor (I'm using a T4i body). I have an EF-S STM 16-135mm lens with a U/V filter. The lens hood fits very well. Putting on and taking off the lens cap with the lens hood on may be a bit more tricky though.

There is not a lens cap that fits the larger open end of this hood that I know of. We have to slide the cap inside to take it on and off. You can twist the hood off and on without interfering with the lens cap when putting the camera back into a bag for example.
