Using the Conversion Lens or Lens Hood

The conversion lens (sold separately) is mounted in front of the lens to
change the shooting angle. Use the conversion lens for more distant, wide-
angle shooting.

The lens hood is a cover designed to prevent sunlight shining directly into
the lines. Use the lens hood when shooting backlit subjects.

Use a commercially available conversion lens or lens hood.

1. Attach a commercially available conversion lens or lens hood to the

lens as shown in the figure.
