The Heliopan 95mm Screw-in Rubber Lens Hood is designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering a lens by extending and shading its front end. This prevents lens flare and improves image contrast. In addition, since the end of a lens is extended when using a hood, you also get the benefit of extra protection from accidental impact to that lens's front element.

This lens hood is constructed with a rubber compound that is UV and temperature resistant, and the rubber material can be rolled back for storage or to convert the hood for use with wide-angle lenses. By rolling back the lens hood, its opening can be made to correspond with a wide-angle lens's angle of view so that vignetting is avoided.

A metal mounting ring connects the hood to a lens with 95mm filter threads and a 0.75mm thread pitch. The mounting ring also features corresponding 95mm front filter threads which can be used to accommodate filters, lens caps, or other threaded accessories.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this hood be usable for both wide-angle and telephoto lenses? (30mm and 90mm)

A: Most likely. There is a slight chance of viginetting with a 30mm and it can't provide the full protection a longer shade would with a long lens. Odds are it will be a good compromise for use with both.

Q: 2. Are there pics or a video of how this attaches to lenses?

A: No, this hood simply screws on to the end of a lens.

Q: 3. Do it fit to this lens: Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD?

A: While the Tamron 150-600mm lens does come with a lens hood, you could use the Heliopan 95mm screw in lens hood with 150-600mm if you prefer.

Q: 4. Would this be wide enough for a 24mm (Leica SL 24-90) in the folded down (smallest) position?

A: It is best to use the hood the lens came with for most light blockage and least vignette, https://bhpho.to/3vlRCz2 . The Heliopan 82mm Screw-in Rubber Lens Hood will produce some vignette.

Q: 5. Will this hood work on a Sigma 150-600 lens? It is on a Nikon D7500 camera if that matters.

A: Yes, the Heliopan 95mm Screw-in Rubber Lens Hood is compatible with the Sigma 150-600mm lens.

Q: 6. does this lens hood work on a Nikon 200-500 ?

A: Yes, they both share a 95mm filter thread.

Q: 7. Does this hood “extend” or is it only 0.8” deep? Want to use on a Tamron 150-600 for easier traveling than the one provided.

A: This hood is nominally 1 1/2" in depth. The only 0.8" listing we have attached to this hood is the depth of the box it comes in.

Q: 8. Will this hood work with a 28mm lens on a full-frame Nikon dlsr without vignetting?

A: This lens hood would not vignette on a 28mm lens mounted on a full frame camera when it is rolled back.

Q: 9. The hood in the photo looks warped, is this an issue with this hood?

A: No. It's good!!

Q: 10. What are the full length and the diameter on the front (away from the lens) of this hood?
