I'm putting in an order for one today and some other accessories I need. Anyone been using one already? I like the idea of it, especially since I do use the 60mm as a telephoto quite often.

Yes, I use it. I like the fact that it's long enough to make a real difference (unlike many lens hoods) and also the way it twists into place then can be retracted for storage.

It is very good, but it can be retracted easily so do not expect any kind of support for closeups. I like how it complements design of mZD60 when extended, diameter grows in three steps and whole lens looks like miniature of big pro telephoto :D

Awesome thanks guys. It looks like a nice hood, I'm ordering it as we speak. Interested to see how it will affect macro usage. Appreciate the input!
