Canon Lens Hoods

[KEV0044]

G'day :)
I've been upgrading my new Canon outfit with some new lenses .
I'm surprised that most Canon lenses are shipped without the appropriate lens hood for each lens .
Even trying to source a camera shop that stocks the lens hoods is a huge task .
They are also not cheap even when you can find a shop that has some in stock .
Not happy :(

Thank's Mate :)
Can you recommend any good shops or provide some links of shops you have dealt with that would be worth looking at ?
Cheer's .

Hey mate,

i just bought a lens hood for my canon 100mm f2.8 macro from e-bay for $8 canon price $56 took 2 weeks to arrive, attachment area looks exactly the same as the canon lens hood for my 24-105, only difference i can see is the canon hood has a fuzzy lining on the inside where as the cheapy is just matt black plastic. came from Travor. so well pleased for that price!

Cheers

Andy
