The hood looks unusually short for such a viewing angle (~28°).
On the one hand, the advantage is that you can use manual focusing with an inverted lens hood. On the other hand, doubts about its effectiveness remain.
Perhaps everything is in order due to the deeply immersed front lens?
Overall, I think it will sell well. 170 grams, autofocus, 140 USD
it saves more from mechanical damage
This is exactly the impression I get.
This is a lens hood from 20/2.8. And the body is basically from him
