Attaching the Lens Hood
When shooting a wide-angle photo that is backlit without using a flash,
we recommend attaching the LH-DC50 Lens Hood to reduce the
amount of light entering the lens.
Align the notch (_) on the lens hood with the
• mark on the camera, and turn the lens hood
in the direction of the arrow until locked.
• Turn the lens hood in the opposite direction to remove it.
If you use the built-in flash with the lens hood attached,
portions of the image may appear darker.
When not in use, remove the lens hood and reattach it to the
camera as shown.
