Query: Nice, but expensive!

Nice lens hood but, expensive!Thin light plastic with a flock interior which is superior to flat black paint but, at $55 its very expensive.Also, makes a long lens even longer as will any hood on the 70-300mm lens.Another point to make is I don't often use the hood as I don't notice any difference with or without the hood. I have only used the 70-300mm lens a couple of times and saw no flares in the pictures without the hood. Nice flare control built into the lens!Conclusion: Probably a better hood than those cheap ones. Fits the lens perfectly.
