Why Use a Lens Hood?
A lens hood is one of the most practical accessories you can add to your camera setup. It blocks stray light from entering the lens at oblique angles, reducing lens flare and ghosting for cleaner, more contrasty images — whether you're shooting portraits, street scenes, or everyday moments. It also acts as a physical barrier, protecting the front element of your lens from accidental bumps and scratches.
