Canon ET-88B Lens Hood

The Canon 3988C001 is a dedicated lens hood for photographers who rely on the RF 600mm f/11 IS STM lens. It attaches with a secure bayonet mount and acts as a physical shade that blocks stray light before it reaches the front element. By cutting down on glare and flare, it helps every frame retain contrast and accurate color, whether you are tracking a distant bird against a bright sky or isolating an athlete under stadium lights.

Beyond optical benefits, the hood adds an extra layer of protection. The design uses lightweight plastic that resists small knocks, scratches, and unexpected contact with rain or dust. At just 3.4 ounces and measuring about 4.9 by 3.8 inches, it slips easily into a camera bag or can remain on the lens without making the setup feel front-heavy.

Wildlife, sports, and travel shooters who work outdoors for extended periods will especially appreciate how the hood maintains image quality in midday sunshine and shields the lens when navigating through brush or crowded sidelines. Installation is quick and intuitive, so you can move from storage to shooting in seconds and stay focused on the subject instead of your gear.
