Nikon Zoom Lens Sun Hood

Nikon Zoom Lens Sun Hood

My photographer friend Patrick has an awesome Nikon 200-500mm zoom lens. The hood that he connects to the end of the lens to protect from the sun has cracked after extensive use. I looked at it and said "How hard can it be to design and print a new one?" We all know what happens after that, but frankly it was fairly straightforward with my middling Fusion360 skills. The hood model is "HB-71". The lens model is "AF-S NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR". This hood may fit other Nikon lenses or other manufacturers who follow a similar bayonet pattern. The video I made documenting the design, print and testing is here: https://youtu.be/WLwqUC-wIUA
