Canon ES-62 lens hood for EF50mm F1.8 II is tricky to attach and remove.
Everyone who reads this blog has experienced not a little that even if they treat their favorite camera and lens carefully, they accidentally hit the camera and lens somewhere during shooting and were disappointed, I think there is.
I'm no exception, and I've had a few pains.
So when I use an SLR camera, I always use a lens hood to protect the front lens of the lens.
I think that the lens hood is originally intended to block strong light from outside the imaging surface to prevent lens flare, but in my case it has a stronger meaning of lens protection.
So, I'm talking about the Canon EF50mm F1.8 II.
It's a cheap lens, but I want to avoid accidents.
I bought the lens hood ES-62 at about the same time as I bought the lens.
The shape of the lens hood includes a simple tubular shape, a conical shape, a square shape, a flower shape, and the like.
It is conical shape.
Then, hook the claws on the hood body into the groove of the hood adapter ring and attach it.
Since there is a groove for the filter, the filter can be installed without any problem.
Besides the above, the reason I use lens hoods is simply because they are cool. lol
There is a big difference between attaching a lens hood and not attaching one.
However, it is very difficult to attach and remove this mechanism that is attached by hooking claw.
Recently, I discovered that it's easy to attach and remove the lens hood by turning the hood clockwise while pressing the button, but I think it's still difficult to get the hang of it.
Was this mechanism standard in the early days of EF lenses?
I knew only bayonet lens hood at the time of buying it.
So I was quite confused :}
It seems that there is a third party made bayonet type thing, so I'm wondering if I should buy it :|
