Detaching the Lens

Attaching a Hood
When the dedicated EW-83H hood is attached to the EF24-105mm f/4L
IS USM lens, it can block unwanted light and also protect the front of
the lens from rain, snow, dust, etc. When storing the lens in a bag, etc.,
you can also attach the hood in reverse.
If the hood is not properly attached, the image periphery might look dark.
When attaching or detaching the hood, grasp the hood toward the
bottom to turn it. If you hold the front edge of the hood, it might get bent
out of shape and become unable to turn.
