From the feedback page:

"This is a wonderful idea, and best of all, it's all free! Cardboardlens hoods work just as well as metal or plastic for shading, with theadvantage that they are a lot easier to store (just fold flat). "
"These DIY hoods are the cheap alternatives to the originals. "
"That's a pretty nifty idea that! "
