Hi Pierre, I know it doesn't vignette because a few months ago I bought an EW-83DII hood to use with 16-35L and 17-40L lenses. I also have a 10D. No vignetting! :-) As to the difference it makes, now that's a harder question, but the more shade a hood provides (without vignetting) the better. I didn't try any side by side tests, I just started using it.... Also, it's a lot more compact and easily stored than the dinner plate hoods that come with the lenses.
