7dayshop Petal Lens Hood For Wide Angle And Wide Zoom Lenses - 82mm
Why should I have a Tulip Hood on my lens, and what will it do ? This is a popular question put to the 7dayshop support staff, and asked on many photographic forums...The Tulip hood is a VERY useful addition that will help reduce "Flare" and "Discoloured Spots" that are caused by sun/light entering the lens at a less than optimal angle (such as side-on and slightly to the front of the lens) on wide-angle (anything less than 35mm) fixed and zoom lenses..."Flare" is caused by light striking the outer lens elements (the glass pieces that make up the entire lens) and causing a washed-out or over-exposed area on the image (sound familiar?)..."Discolouration Spots" usually appear as Purple/Blue/Yellow Hexagonal or Octagonal dots of varying size, that can ruin an otherwise normally exposed
image...To counter these, the Hood can be mounted/rotated to provide perfect positioning of the different height "Petals", depending on where the sun/light is (eg to the left/right/below/above the front of the lens)...The Hood can also reduce the appearance of dust on frontal lens elements, in certain circumstances (but a clean dust-free lens is always best - please see our lens cleaning kits, cloths and sprays)...These hoods are tough and impact-resistant and offer incredible value, and should be in every photographers kit-bag...Check the front of your lens for the correct size diameter when ordering (in mm), This hood is for an 82mm threaded lens...7dayshop Info: Lens hoods and filters will typically fit onto the front of your lens by screwing clockwise into place. Most lenses will
show what diameter filter or hood is required on the front with a small circle symbol (like F58mm) Filter sizes are given as a mm size and most popular sizes go from 49mm up to 82mm although they can vary outside of this range for more specialist cameras and lenses..
