Temporarily storing the lens hood
1
Turn the lens hood in the
direction of the arrow to detach it.
2
Reverse the lens hood and then
attach it in the same way as
shown previously.
• Attach the lens cap.
• When temporarily storing the lens hood,
check that it is firmly attached and that it
does not appear in the picture.
• Hold the short sides of the lens hood
when attaching or detaching it.
• When taking pictures with the flash with
the lens hood attached, the lower portion
of the screen may turn dark (vignetting
effect) and the control of the flash may be
disabled because the photo flash may be
obscured by the lens hood. We
recommend detaching the lens hood.
• When using the AF assist lamp in the
dark, detach the lens hood.
• For details on how to attach the MC
protector and the PL filter, refer to P106.

accessories, refer to the “Digital Camera
Accessory System”. (P125)
