## Long description

OM System LH-55D is a dedicated lens hood engineered for the 9-18 II wide-angle zoom lens and compatible with Micro Four Thirds mount cameras. It reduces stray light entering the front element, which helps minimise lens flare and ghosting and preserves contrast and colour fidelity when shooting in bright or backlit conditions. The hood secures to the lens with a bayonet mount and provides partial protection for the front element against accidental contact and light moisture during outdoor use.
Advantages
The LH-55D improves image quality by blocking oblique light rays that cause flare and loss of contrast, particularly when shooting toward strong light sources. Its form fits the optical design of the 9-18 II lens to avoid vignetting at wide focal lengths while maintaining effective shielding. The hood is lightweight, easy to attach and detach, and sits securely in the locking position to prevent rotation or accidental detachment during normal handling.
Suitable for
Landscape and cityscape photography with the 9-18 II wide-angle zoom
Outdoor travel and documentary shooting in bright or variable lighting
Backlit scenes and high-contrast compositions where flare reduction is important
Everyday protection of the front lens element from bumps and light moisture
Key specifications
Compatibility: designed for 9-18 II wide-angle zoom lens on Micro Four Thirds cameras
Type: petal-shaped bayonet lens hood
Primary function: blocks stray light to reduce flare and ghosting
Material: durable, lightweight construction suitable for regular use
Mount: secure bayonet attachment with locking position
How to use
Align the hood’s bayonet tabs with the corresponding slots on the front of the 9-18 II lens and rotate until it locks into place. Verify the hood is seated and locked to avoid rotation during use. For storage, remove the hood by rotating it in the opposite direction and, if supported by the lens, mount it in reverse on the lens body to save space. Use the hood when shooting in bright, backlit, or high-contrast situations to minimise flare and preserve image contrast; remove only when the hood causes vignetting with accessories or very wide framing.
Usage recommendations
Use the LH-55D consistently during outdoor shoots where stray light may affect image quality. Check for mechanical vignetting at the widest focal length after attaching filters or adapters. When packing, attach the hood reversed on the lens or store it separately to prevent deformation.
