From the feedback page:
- "This is one way cool site that contains printable designs for lens hoods for a very large number of lenses. What a great idea! "

- "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. "
