You can extend and collapse the 58mm FotodioX 3-Section Rubber Lens Hood, which has a metal ring, to different lengths to accommodate wide, normal, and telephoto focal lengths. Therefore, it matches the field-of-view and does not cause any vignetting in the image while it is being captured. The hood blocks stray light from entering the lens, which reduces lens flare or glare, and it protects the front element from scratches and accidental impact.

Q: 1. What is the widest angle lens (on 35mm film format) this hood will cover without vignetting?

A: I use it for 35mm - 70mm zoom. I don't know if it will go any wider. I do know it will not go to 20mm.

Q: 2. Will this fit a Nikon d3300 standard 18-55mm? Seeking super easy collapsible lens hood for kit lens for traveling.

A: No it won't fit. The Nikon 18-55mm lens has a 52mm threaded filter mount and this lens hood is 55mm so you would need a collapsible hood that was 52mm and not 55mm. Hope that helps.

Q: 3. can be used with a tamron 70-200?

A: Yes as long as you lens is 77mm in diameter

Q: 4. Will this hood work with the Nikkor AF-S DX 18-300 f/3.5-6.3 ED VR lense? I see that some of the hoods available only work with specific zoom lengths.

A: The B+W 67mm #900 Rubber Lens Hood would fit onto the Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3G ED VR Lens as the lens has 67mm filter threads. However, as indicated under the Overview for the lens hood, the hood is designed for use with normal-length and short zoom lenses. I cannot guarantee the B+W 67mm #900 Rubber Lens Hood will cover the zoom range of the 18-300 f/3.5-6.3 ED VR lens. The rubber lens hood that would most closely match the zoom range of the Nikon 18-300mm lens would be the Hama 67mm Screw-In Rubber Zoom Lens Hood for 24mm to 210mm Lenses, B&H # HALHZ67. http://bhpho.to/1yuEumX

Q: 6. Can you use this on a window to eliminate reflections?

Q: 7. How can this hood possibly be limited to a 200mm lens when a 200mm lens has a 12 degree angle of view and a 400 mm has a 6 deg?
