The lens hood is a common photographic accessory set in front of the camera lens. It has the following uses:
1. The hood can make your lens look longer, cooler and more professional;
2. The hood can prevent the lens flare from sunlight or flash from entering the lens and making the photo whitish;
3. The hood can also protect your beloved lens to prevent it from being scratched or broken. When you turn the corner with the lens or accidentally hit the chair, the edge of the table or even the wall, if there is no hood protection, then your beloved lens will be injured
