Does anyone use a longer lens hood on their 77mm when they use it with their DSLR?
For my 31mm I bought a 58 to 55mm step-down ring and a 20mm long metal hood based on a thread on DPReview. It works great and provide extra protection for the front element for those of us who don't like use filters.
Do people do the same for the 77mm?
(In case it's not obvious, the built-in lens hood is optimized for use on film cameras, so a longer one would shade better for cropped DSLRs.)
Thanks - Greg
