## Long description

ZEISS replacement lens hood designed for use with ZEISS 3.5/18 and 2.8/21 ZE/ZF.2 lenses. The hood features a black finish and is shaped to block stray light, reducing flare and improving image contrast. It mounts to the front of the specified lenses to provide additional protection for the front element against accidental impact, glare and environmental factors during outdoor or studio shooting.
Advantages
The hood reduces flare and ghosting by shielding the lens from off-axis light, which helps maintain color fidelity and contrast in demanding lighting conditions. Its form factor is matched to the optical design of the compatible lenses to avoid vignetting while providing dependable physical protection for the lens front. The black surface minimises internal reflections and contributes to predictable image rendering under varied shooting scenarios.
Suitable for
 Landscape and architecture photography where controlling stray light is important
 Outdoor and travel shooting to protect the front element from bumps and weather
 Studio work to limit unwanted highlights and preserve contrast
 General on-location use with compatible ZEISS wide-angle lenses
Key specifications
 Compatibility: ZEISS 3.5/18 and 2.8/21 ZE/ZF.2 lenses
 Finish: matte black exterior to reduce reflections
 Purpose: stray light shielding and front-element protection
 Mount type: bayonet/clip-on style designed for specified lens models
How to use
Align the hood with the lens front and attach it according to the lens bayonet or clip engagement until it seats securely. Confirm that the hood is firmly attached before shooting to ensure effective stray light control and protection. Remove the hood by reversing the mounting motion when storing the lens in a compact bag or when using filters or accessories that require an unobstructed front element.
Usage recommendations
For optimal results, use the hood whenever shooting in bright or uneven lighting to minimise flare. Check for vignetting at the widest focal settings after mounting; if any obstruction appears, verify that the hood is the correct model for the lens and is properly seated. Clean the hood exterior with a soft cloth to avoid transferring dust or grit to the lens front.
