Get the biggest one you can get. I think the largest size is 77mm. You can always use it on a smaller lens but you can't use a small ED on a large lens. Truthfully I don't think there are too many options.

Prophet out.

I agree get the 77 you can always just hold it up tight in front of the smaller lens. That is what I currently do and it works great. Also, for my one lens that is larger than 77, I just meter on a smaller lens then change to the larger lens and have not had any issues doing it either.

Or buy a pack of pringles - the lid seems to work out about the same from what I've read ?
