Can someone tell me the difference between the ET-65II and the ET-65III lens hoods. They look the same to me. The size appears to the same.

The Roman numeral indicates a minor upgrade to the hood, but the basic design and size remain the same. The upgrade usually consists of rayon flocking applied to the interior of the hood rather than flat black paint. Supposedly a darn good flocking is preferable.
