I am slightly wondering how the threaded one stays in the desired position.

The videographer kinda missed the point. New lens hood design ... - toni-a - 07-09-2016 On the paper it is very interesting at least as a lens cap, dunno how protective it is. After several accidents, I know that a hood is very protective without deteriorating image quality, (often it has a positive effect), in my book it is better for protection than a UV and I have hoods for every singe lens I use. I am not sure if this one is solid and offers good protection, anyway I will check if it is shipped to Lebanon and order one for trial, thanks for sharing New lens hood design ... - Klaus - 07-09-2016 It is a metal lens hood it seems. Honestly I am a lens hood hater - because of the bulk and the cumbersome attaching/detaching. This feels like a good compromise.

As for lens caps...it's a different story I constantly lose them, I have spare caps with me now.
