Preparation
Attaching the Lens Hood
In bright sunlight or backlight, the lens hood will minimise lens flare and ghosting. The lens
hood cuts off excess lighting and improves the picture quality.
•
The 20 mm/F1.7 interchangeable lens supplied with the DMC-GF1C does not have a lens
hood.
•
Check that the camera is turned off.
•
Close the flash.
To attach the lens hood (flower shape) that came with the 14–45 mm/F3.5–5.6 lens
included in the DMC-GF1K

Temporarily storing the lens hood
1
Turn the lens hood in the direction of the arrow to
detach it.
2
Reverse the lens hood and then attach it in the
same way as shown previously.
•
Attach the lens cap.
•
When temporarily storing the lens hood, check that it is
firmly attached and that it does not appear in the picture.
Note
•
Hold the short sides of the flower shaped
lens hood when attaching or detaching it.
•
When taking pictures with flash with the lens hood attached, the lower portion of the photo may
turn dark (vignetting effect) and the control of the flash may be disabled because the photo
flash may be obscured by the lens hood. We recommend detaching the lens hood.
•
When using the AF assist lamp in the dark, detach the lens hood.
