## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Nice but expensive, like all Olympus OEM hoods
  

*by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2018*

It does it's job to protect the lens and keep out stray light.  It's overpriced (as are all OEM lens hoods) but it fits nicely and looks like it belongs there.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Beats the aftermarket equivalent
  

*by C***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2019*

I owned one of the after market hoods and it never fit completely right on my lens.  This genuine Olympus hood is solid with no slop - you get what you pay for in this instance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Nice hood that should have been included with lens.  And too expensive!
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2014*

OK, so this is a really nice lens hood, and I gave it four stars because of that.  It fits very snugly on the 45/1.8, looks good (for whatever that matters), and does its job.  It fits over the lens in reverse for storage together in the bag.But as untold Olympus owners have said in the past, there are two problems with the hood:1. It should have come with the lens, and2. If it didn't come with the lens, it should have cost no more than $8-$10.  The retail price of this hood, which is only a single piece of plastic weighing a few grams, is truly offensive.I'm not going to be petty and rate this at one or two stars, because a customer considering this can make their own conclusions based on the price.  I merely knocked off one star for poor "value for money."But seriously, this hurts Olympus I think.  Recently, they seem to have come to their senses, because the 25/1.8 which is based on the 45/1.8 and looks nearly identical other than proportions comes with its own hood, which is identical to this one except for size.
