Sweet ride, Peter!

Is there a CPS Canada standard rate for that treatment?

A couple of good ideas. I like the look of the white hood. Couple of questions though. Is the inside of the hood flocked, or just black plastic? And, where do you get one? I found the JJC web site, but they don't offer a dealer locator, and B&H doesn't list JJC products.

Thanks,
Fred

I just had an epiphany! I should get pink camo LensCoats for my 100-400L IS II.

I'm sorry Jim but LensCoat did not make the 100-400II lens coat in pink. They do make it for some other lenses like this nice 600II lens

That lenscoat is sickening and tragic looking. Unless some of you might find it appealing because it looks so "femme". To each his (or her) own.

I have actually seen someone using one of those hot pink lens coats on a 600 II. It was quite jarring, to say the least. My retinas may have been burned.

Black plastic matte finish, similar to what Canon used to have on the inside of all of their hoods before they had started applying felt or flocking liner.
Either way, that seems quite adequate to me. It's a $10 hood including shipping from China.

So was the lens hood originally intended for the MK I of the 100-400 Peter? And it just happens to fit VII?

They are interchangeable.

Yes, Camster, that white hood was made as a replacement for ET-83C, which is the hood for 100-400 MkI. However, as Jim has already noted, the hoods for MkI and MkII lenses are interchangeable.

Moreover, I have also got a knock off hood for 70-200 f/2.8, based on Howard's experience, and that one mounts on 100-400 MkII pretty good too, and it should be similarly effective on it.

Sweet. I got notification this morning that my 100-400 II has been shipped; should be here in a couple of days…

Congratulations, that is an old and time-tested duo: 500 f/4 IS and 100-400L.

Thanks Peter. It takes me awhile to discover what I'm after but I get there eventually. I'm knocking on 50 and I don't have a motorcycle, boat, mistress or gambling habit. My wife is a sweetheart who loves her garden and our bird visitors so she's my enabler.

Sorry for going off topic!
