Para-sol Canon ES-73B para RF 45mm F1.2 STM

First time using a dedicated lens hood on my 45mm, and the difference in contrast is immediately noticeable—no more washed-out highlights. It clicks on securely and blocks stray light exactly as needed. For the price, it’s a no-brainer.

Sun was blasting straight into the lens during my afternoon shoot and the hood cut the flare completely, no ghosting at all in the final shots. Snaps on with a firm click and feels solid enough that I don't worry about bumps when it's in my bag.

Snapped this hood on before a beach shoot and the shade it throws over the front element made a real difference against the harsh sun, cutting the glare I used to battle. It locks on solidly with no wobble and feels like it’ll take a few knocks without issue.
