What kind of umbrella should I buy?

I want to buy a hood for my Canon 40D. I saw two different types on Ebay. Not 78BII lens hood Canon $ 30 EW-economic or $ 10 no names. Do I buy the cheapest or should I go with the Canon lens hood?

An umbrella is on the front of the objective and has nothing to do with the body of the camera. There are two types of umbrellas in the first place, which, in the thread on the front of the lens and connected to a saddle bayonet. The latter these days tends to be most common. Steps are useful as a fast clip, but the disadvantage of relaxation time to the point where he can not seat securely. Screw those based on taking the time to go and you have to screw. But if you're in using filters that are superior to the bayonet, you have to use the screw type. They also have an advantage when you use a polarizer, the filter must be enabled to achieve maximum effect and is something that can only be done when you are in a bayonet mount hood. They also come in two materials, rubber and plastic. Plastic has the advantage of being rigid and therefore offers little protection to the lens, rubber has the advantage of being flexible and easier to store in your camera bag. In addition to selecting a hood that matches the screw or bayonet use, you must ensure that it is designed for that angle of view of the lens. If you put a cap on a TV classic wide angle lens you take pictures in a dark tunnel. If you put a cap for a wide-angle to telephoto, which lead nowhere, the bell did not prevent crises. So when you select a parasol make sure it is designed for the type of lens you have. Now, to answer your question, it makes no difference what brand you buy umbrella, parasol better or worse, often marked as Canon or Nikon extortionately expensive, without providing better materials and designs. The only real advantage for the selection of Canon hood is that you know from the beginning that is designed to this is useful if you can not be sure of others that are available. There is another advantage. So when it comes to umbrellas, make sure it is the correct size, make sure there is a screw or bayonet depending on what you need, and make sure the lens is designed for, they use it. Once done, I would say that you can buy on price rather than brand. I hope that helps a little.
