Go to the Sigma Corporate website and scroll to the bottom to find Lens Hood http://www.sigmaphoto.com/shop/lens-hoods then you can find and purchase the right one for your lens.

check to see what the diameter of your lens is. Did you get the kit lens? I did not, so I can't really tell you. However, I will say that you should buy Canon products and not a generic. I bought a generic Lens hood and it was a total waste of money.

Not sure if it will fit. It will be a very tight squeeze if it does fit. I would look for a slightly larger case. It doesn't really fir with the lens hood extended either.Barb

I have a 70-300 on one of my d4's and have no problem fitting it with the lens hood on. The other camera is a d4 with a 24-70 lens.

The hood should not interfere with the normal lens cap. At least it doesn't on mine. I am able to use the cap that came with the lens.

U have to purchase the mm size to fit your lens. So if its a 52mm hood then it will fit on 52mm lens. Its by size. So it should fit the 52mm lens filter in theory. Lol wish i could give u a definate answer but if i had to say yes or no, i would say yes if u attach it to the filter.

Fit, yes. Work with, not really. This hood is useless. The 55-250 has its own specific hood meant to handle flare and ghosting on longer focal lengths. Just Google it.

Tamron included a lens hood when I bought my lens so I don't know which other one would work. You might double check to see if the lens hood is still included.

I got the lens adaptor for the filter lenses, which are 58mm. There are a varity of hoods that fit that standard size. There are a few designs, full tube types and even collapsable ones. Just whichever one fits your needs. I actually have two. You'll also need a standard 58mm size lens cap. I recommend getting the one with a tether string with elastic loop that fits around the main lens of the camera. This will keep you from losing the cap. It's short enough to not be in the way and makes it all worry free so to speak. Filters also help protect the main lens from dust and scratches. So even keeping a standard UV filter on all the time is important for not only haze and glare, but protection as well.

I don't think you want this one on your 18-55mm lens. It's too deep that the hood will block part of the view if you put this one on 18-55mm. It's for telephoto lens. Hope this would help.

I'm not sure, but I think that this hood is for lenses only 17-85mm and 18-135

This hood is for a specific Nikon lens. It's not a screw-in hood and has no threads. It won't fit a lens it wasn't designed for. The hood has spring-loaded tabs that match a groove on the lens rim. The hood slips over and slightly behind the front of the lens. The tabs snap into the groove and hold fast. The lens's existing threads are unencumbered and filters may be installed or removed as needed. In any case, you shouldn't place any filters on a hood. Filters should be placed as close to a lens's front element as feasible to minimize any internal reflections and optical artifacts.

Honestly, I'm not sure about with a hood, I have a Canon 75-300mm and it fits great in the 3rd one (next to the largest), They aren't "skin tight". Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I do not have that lens. This hood fits my 67mm 17-85mm IS USM perfect. Just a twist and it snaps on. Perhaps Canon or a good camera shop can give positive feedback.

I use it on my tamron 18-270 and have NO trouble with the lens hood. I like the BW filter so much that I just bought another one for my Tamron 28-75 (67mm for the latter). I think the light transmission is excellent!

The one i received does not have threading on the front.... you could use a hood but it would have to be one that fits over the front of the lens and that is a little bigger than 68mm according to their website....
