Preparations/Basics

2
Turn the lens hood in the direction of the arrow to
secure it
3
Continue to rotate the lens hood until you hear a “click”
even if you feel some stiffness, and then align the mark on
the bottom of the camera
• Make sure the lens hood is secured properly and its reflection does not
fall on images.
Rotate until the marks are aligned
●
If you attach the lens hood while using the flash, the flash light would be blocked by the lens hood
causing the bottom part of images to be darkened (vignetting) and also making it impossible to
modulate the light. It is recommended to remove the lens hood before using the flash.
