Free Lens Hoods

While browsing one of my favorite websites, Photojojo, I found this neat link to a website for printing and putting together your own Lens Hood. It is free and maybe less sturdy that the real one, but it does the job for the best price (ahem, FREE!). You may be asking, Well, Why use a printable lens hood?

• Ultra compact - can be carried unfolded.
• No waiting to order one - simply download, print, cut-out and attach.
• Redundancy - don't worry if you lose one; just print another!
• 100% recyclable.
• Can be modified to cater for different digital SLR sensor crop factors.
• Available in both 'rounded' and 'petal' versions.

And best of all...

• They're absolutely free!

I got mine, the only thing I got trouble with was getting it in place, until the paper was molded enough. Maybe, it is not real deal, but sure can save the day!
