ULHgo Ultimate Lens Hood - Original Anti Reflection Camera LenSkirt 49-82mm

It’s silicone, so its very floppy and a little fiddly to use, but once you get it sorted, there is zero reflection. The only down side is it tends to suction to the glass, which can make zooming in and out difficult, as it prevents the hood from rotating, with the zoom ring or lens. This shouldn’t be an issue with higher-end and larger lenses with internal linear zoom mechanisms.

as expected. very soft rubber. I ordered a second one that I plan to cut to fit my larger diameter lenses.

Brought this in preparation for a trip, that was intended to get some shots at night, and through windows. In general, it's tricky to use as it's reasonably flimsy, and you pretty much have to keep it off the focus ring on a lens, either for AF or manual. But once set properly to the window, it does a great job of getting rid of interior glare. It's effectiveness makes up for it being a mild challenge to use. I'm not sure if increased stiffness would be a real benefit, so I'm content with this for my purposes.

Shooting through window glass is to be avoided at all costs -- but sometimes it cannot be helped. Taking photos from a skyscraper observation floor is a good example, store front displays would be another. So having a shade that blocks light reflections on the window surface is a must. A conventional rubber lens hood can work well, but typically you can only use it to shoot straight ahead and not at an angle. That's where this floppy lens hood comes in, and I do mean floppy! Instead of using a conventional set of filter threads, this stretches over the end of your lens like putting on a shower cap. This is a clever design that help keeps the cost low, rather than having to make and stock a set of standard filter size lens threads. So apparently the "ULHgo" featured here is the original, so I assume the others you'll find on Amazon are knockoffs. I thought I would save some money buying the least expensive knockoff, but a review mentioned that light from behind can be seen through the folds of the hood. So I decided I'd pay more for the original to have a higher quality product. Guess what? You can see light through the folds on this hood as well. (See photo.) Now if the interior lighting is relatively dim, and the outdoor is bright, this will not be a problem. But if you are trying to shoot something like a city scape at night from inside of a normally lite interior, this is not going to work if you have to shoot at an angle to the glass, or your lens is wide and is held away from the glass. So bottom line, neat idea, not suitable for all anticipated use cases, and the quality may not be significantly better than the cheaper knockoffs, although it may be more resistant to tearing. In my case, I decided to return it, but it might work out for you. The star ratings are always in relation to the item's intended purpose, type, and durability. 5 stars - The item is perfect with no room for meaningful improvement. The item performs its intended function consistently, and without fail. It also appears to be durable in its manufacture and materials. 4 stars - While not perfect, any imperfections are likely to go unnoticed in normal use. The item should be durable given normal care and handling. 3 stars - The item has significant short comings or limitations, but these do not significantly degrade performance. And/or the item may not be durable if not handled with some degree of care. 2 stars - The item has defects or short comings that compromise performance. And/or the item may be likely to fail prematurely even with careful use. 1 star - The item does not function correctly in any meaningful way or is very difficult or even hazardous to use. And/or the item failed completely with very little use.

The product needs a rigid ring as it is too floppy near the edges.

Honestly, quite disappointing. The idea is great. The design not so much. It feels great in the hands on unboxing. Really supple, smooth, high quality rubber. But, VERY difficult to get onto a 77mm lens (even though it says it fits up to 82mm). And, once it is on comes the biggest disappointment: no structural rigidity at all. You barely touch it to a window and it collapses onto itself. You have to hold it against the window, but even then the side opposite your hand bends away from the window if you even slightly change the angle of shooting. It is much harder to use than simply putting on the lens hood and holding it against the window. A small piece of fabric draped over your lens hood accomplishes the same thing with much greater ease of use. If the ring that fit against the window was more rigid it might be worth using. Sending back as it is more hassle than it’s worth, unfortunately.

Cheap, flimsy, overpriced, not very functional. It needs to be less flimsy, and more rigid. You need more than 2 hands to use it, and operate your camera. I knew instantly (after attached it to my lens) that I made a mistake in purchasing this. Returned it (via Whole Foods) less than an hour after it arrived.

Removes the windows glare but i have to press against the windows and most times that doesn't allow you to take the best picture. I now use a polarized lens... dah!

La compré con un trabajo en mente, y al final logré lo que quería, pero el proceso es muy complicado, dice que es para un rango amplio de diámetros de lentes y aunque si es elástico, para lentes de un diámetro profesional cuesta trabajo ponerlo, aparte como es muy plegable es no se queda rígido, hay que usar una mano para detenerlo. Como todo si se busca como usarlo funciona, pero podría estar diseñado d una mejor forma

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.

Durch Zufall bin ich auf dieses Produkt gestoßen und da mir eine Busrundreise in Island bevorstand habe ich nicht lange überlegt und bestellt! Bei der letzten Reise hatte ich so viele Bilder mit unschöne Spiegelung, was mich schon sehr geärgert hat! Ich hatte also jetzt eine unglaubliche Zeit auf Island und dank der ULH Bilder aus dem Bus heraus ohne Spiegelung! Ich kann sie für diesen Zweck jedem wärmstens empfehlen! Die Handhabung ist einfach, die ULH ordentlich über das Objektiv ziehen und beim Fotografieren darauf achten das sie komplett am Fenster liegt. Ein bisschen Übung erfordert es schon, so kann es schon mal passieren das man die Kamera zu weit neigt und eine schwarze Ecke von der ULH auf dem Bild hat. Die Verpackung ist minimalistisch und wirklich ansehnlich. Die ULH ist einfach ein Gummitrichter der Fusseln magisch anzieht aber das stört überhaupt nicht! Die ULH wird mich ab jetzt auf jeder meiner Reisen begleiten!

el sistema es de chupón o succión como destapa baños, muy blando no se mantiene firme y es un caos agarrar cámara agarrar lente y ahora este tipo de parasol,

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.
