Attaching The Lens Hood - Panasonic DMC-FZ18 Operating Instructions Manual

Preparation

camera being careful not to twist it.
• Check that the strap is firmly attached to
the camera.
• Attach the strap so that the "L
is on the outside.
• We recommend attaching the strap when
using the camera to prevent it from
dropping.
Attaching the Lens
Hood
In bright sunlight or backlight, the lens hood
will minimise lens flare and ghosting. The
lens hood cuts off excess lighting and
improves the picture quality.
• Check that the camera is turned off.
• Close the flash.
1 Securely attach the hood adaptor
(supplied) so that it is all the way
into the lens barrel.
• Do not tighten the hood adaptor too
much.
2 Place the camera upside down,
align the mark on the lens hood
with the mark
and then insert the lens hood.
