You can get the Canon ones for 'muchos spondlies' or you can get the non-Canon ones from ebay.....don't know the difference, apart from price to be honest.

I got a non canon hood for my 17-40f4L (I got a smaller one from the 17-55f2.8) as I'm on a 1.6x crop camera and the Canon one had a felt/fuzzy lining on the inside of the hood and the cheaper no-canon one doesn't, it doesn't seem to cause any problems though...

Yes you do need a lens hood. And I'd say you should get the proper Canon one too. It'll cost you about £16 and is worth every penny.
