Dear EW-83J...

...thank you for your heroic sacrifice in protecting your companion lens. Your service shall be fondly remembered. Rest in peace.

Lens + hood combo fell from a height of about a meter while hiking a few weeks ago. Hood is gone, lens is unhurt. :)

Even better, "Rest in pieces." :-)

But...did you have a UV fliter on the lens?!? :p :rolleyes:

Nope, if I remember right I had a circular polarizer on at the time of the incident. Which was also unhurt.
