We recommend that you use the lens hood to prevent light outside the shooting
frame from affecting the image.
1. Match the shape of the lens hood mounting part and lens head, and turn the
lens hood clockwise until it clicks.
Note
Attach the lens hood properly. Otherwise, the lens hood may not have any
effect or may be partially reflected in the image.
When the lens hood is attached properly, the lens hood index (red line)
matches the red index mark on the hood.
Remove the lens hood when using the flash. Otherwise, the lens hood blocks
the flash light and may appear as a shadow on the image.
To store the lens hood after shooting, attach the lens hood to the lens
backward.
