Canon 70-200 2.8is MkI lens hood

[Meeten]

Hi,

I am in need of a replacement lens hood.
Looking on line, I believe the part is ET-86
Whilst I am not adverse to getting a black lens hood, the £37 cost does smart a bit.

Anyone know if
a) the part number I think I need is correct
b) an alternative that does pretty much the same job (without the OEM price tag).


Thanks

Here you are Meeten https://www.premier-ink.co.uk/photographic/lens-accessories/canon-et-86-compatible-lens-hood.html

Think this thread is in the wrong section, maybe Wanted or Shopping and Suppliers would be more appropriate

I put this in OOF as I wasn't 100% sure that it is the correct lens hood.
It would appear that it is.
Not sure if there are any for sale from members, but might put something in the 'WANTED' section just in case....

You can get them for less than a tenner on eBay. The one I bought fitted ok but I ended up buying a Canon one eventually.

Thanks - I can't see how a genuine Canon version is 4x better build quality than a generic version.
Saying that, I don't want the lens to be damaged either, so may well end up looking at a Canon version.
but before I do that, think I need to get a generic one to see how good it is.
