Overview

The Canon ET-120 (W) is an OEM lens hood engineered to pair with a specific Canon lens, blocking oblique light rays that would otherwise strike the front element and scatter internally as flare or haze. Unlike aftermarket hoods designed to fit a range of lenses, the ET-120 (W) is profiled precisely for its matched lens's angle of view — meaning the hood extends exactly as far as it can without encroaching on the image circle. The result is maximum flare suppression without the vignetting risk of an improperly sized hood. The matte-black interior finish absorbs rather than redirects stray light, preserving the contrast and color saturation the lens delivers wide open.

In practice, the ET-120 (W) is most valuable in high-contrast lighting situations: outdoor portraiture with the sun behind your subject, architectural interiors with large windows in frame, or event work under mixed artificial and natural light. It also provides a degree of physical protection for the front element — a light bump against a surface hits the hood rather than the glass. The bayonet mount makes it fast to attach or reverse for transport, and the overall weight addition is negligible enough that most photographers leave it mounted as a matter of course. For any Canon shooter whose kit lens shipped without a hood, or who needs a replacement, the OEM part is the straightforward choice.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

OEM fit from Canon ensures the hood length and profile are optimized for the specific lens's angle of view without introducing vignetting.
Matte inner finish minimizes internal reflections that could degrade contrast even after stray light is blocked.
Lightweight hard plastic construction adds negligible weight to the front of the lens during extended handheld shooting.
Bayonet attachment provides secure, tool-free mounting and removal between shots or locations.

👎 Cons

Sold as a single hood with no additional accessories — no lens cap, pouch, or mounting hardware is included beyond the hood itself.
Hard ABS plastic construction offers minimal protection if the hood takes a direct impact, and a cracked hood is generally not repairable.
Compatibility is limited to the specific Canon lens this hood was designed for — it is not a universal fit accessory.
No filter thread on the front of most Canon petal-style hoods, which prevents attaching a UV or polarizing filter over the hood.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Canon lenses is the ET-120 (W) designed to fit?

The ET-120 (W) is a Canon OEM hood — verify compatibility with your specific lens model before purchasing, as Canon produces lens-specific hoods matched to each lens's angle of view. The "(W)" designation typically indicates a wide-angle optimized petal or rounded profile.

Does the ET-120 (W) allow the lens cap to be attached while the hood is mounted?

This depends on the specific hood design — some Canon ET-series hoods are designed to accept the front lens cap while mounted, others are not. Check the hood's front inner diameter against your lens cap size, or consult Canon's accessory guide for your lens model.

Will the ET-120 (W) cause vignetting on a full-frame sensor?

Canon designs OEM hoods with the correct length and profile for each lens's intended image circle and focal length. An OEM hood matched to your lens should not cause vignetting — but mounting a hood intended for a different focal length will.

Can the ET-120 (W) be reverse-mounted on the lens for storage and transport?

Many Canon bayonet-style lens hoods can be reversed onto the lens barrel for compact storage. Whether the ET-120 (W) supports reverse mounting depends on its bayonet geometry — check the physical fit on your lens before assuming this is possible.

Is the ET-120 (W) made of hard plastic or a softer material?

Canon ET-series hoods are typically manufactured from hard matte-finish ABS plastic. This keeps weight minimal and reduces light reflection inside the hood, though the hard material offers less impact absorption than rubber alternatives.
