Hi Bob,

Henry is right.  The EW-78B was a shiny plastic hood that was
discontinued only 2 months after its release! It would reflect
light onto the front element of the 28-135 IS and cause
increased flare!

I could not get rid of mine quickly enough (even before eBay).
It was replaced with the EW-78B II, which has black anti-
reflective rayon flocking.

Ken, make sure you choose the right hood.

Cheers
Julian Loke
