Lens Hood

Use the lens hood to reduce flare and ensure maximum image quality.

•Remove the lens hood from your lens before using the camera’s built-in flash.

To attach a bayonet mount lens hood, fit the hood into the bayonet mount on the end of the lens barrel, then turn the lens clockwise until it stops.

If your lens and hood have guide marks, align the red line on the lens hood with the red line on the lens, then turn the lens hood clockwise until the dot on the lens hood is lined up with the line on the lens.

•To store the lens hood, reverse it and attach it to the lens, then replace the lens cap.
