When a lens hood is attached to the lens, it can reduce image ghosting
or flare by blocking stray light. The lens hood can also protect the front
of the lens from raindrops, snow, dust, etc.
Although the lens hood is usually sold separately, certain lens kit
configurations have it included.
Attach the lens hood.
Turn the lens hood as shown by the
arrow until it attaches securely.

To detach the lens hood, grasp the base of the hood when turning it.
Grasping the hood’s edges when turning it may deform the hood.
If the lens hood is not properly attached, the hood might appear in the
picture wi h the image periphery looking dark.
Before using the built-in flash, detach the lens hood. Otherwise, the lens
hood may partially block the flash and cause a darkened area in the
picture.
The hood can be mounted in reverse on the lens for storage.
