From the feedback page:

"This is a very nice resource, considering Canon hoods cost ~$40 USD or something like that. They don't include hoods for non-L lenses. And of course, a hood is a very useful accessory... just not at $40!! "
"Thanks! Thought about it for a while, but never got to doing it. Your tips saves me time! Will use good paper or plastic so it will last longer:-) "
"wow - i've been scouring eBay for 3rd party hoods recently for my lenses - this is a great alternative though. I just cannot believe the price they charge for such a simple piece ofplastic with no moving parts and no specialist engineering - that's gotto be the worst example of profiteering i've ever seen. "
