Pros & Cons
Pros
Overall just a great little asset to my rig. The only issue for me is aesthetic and that is that the hood is not perfectly circular at the ends.
The helios 85mm f1. Macro zoom lens hood is great. Comes with a cleaning brush, micro cloth and even a lens cap. Great for astrophotography on helio lenses that didn't have hoods, and they work well.

Easy to put on but that makes it easy to come off when pulling it out of my photography bag
