Lens hoods are primarily designed to prevent unwanted stray light from
entering the lens, by extending and shading the end of the lens. A dedicated
lens hood is designed to perfectly match the specific focal length of the
lenses it was designed for. Moreover, this hood features a non-glare matte
finish on the interior surface, to further prevent or limit lens flare. And
since the end of the lens is extended, you also get the added benefit of
some extra protection from accidental impact. The bayonet mount is designed
to also work in the reversed position, allowing the hood to be placed
backwards over the lens for a more compact storage solution.
