• You cannot attach the lens hood the

opposite way.

• When taking pictures with flash with the

lens hood attached, the lower portion of
the photo 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.

protector and the ND filter, refer to P118.

adaptor is attached.
