HB-90A Lens Hood for Z-DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR Lens
Overview:
The HB-90A is a bayonet-style lens hood designed to be used with the NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR lens. It’s an essential accessory for any photographer using this lens, as it provides several key benefits:
Product Features:
Effectively Prevents Light: The HB-90A lens hood is primarily designed to block stray light from entering the lens, which can cause unwanted glare and reflections. By extending the length of the lens barrel, the lens hood creates a physical barrier that effectively prevents light from entering the lens from the sides and helps reduce lens flare and ghosting.
Protects the Lens: In addition to preventing unwanted light, the lens hood also provides physical protection for the front element of the lens. It acts as a buffer against accidental bumps and scratches, reducing the risk of damage to the expensive lens.
Improved Ergonomics: The HB-90A lens hood also enhances the handling and ergonomics of the lens. By providing a larger surface area to grip, the lens hood makes it easier to hold and operate the lens, especially when using it handheld or with a tripod.
Easy Installation: The lens hood is easy to install and remove. It simply attaches to the front of the lens with a bayonet mount, allowing for quick and secure attachment.
Durability: Made from high-quality materials, the HB-90A lens hood is built to last. It’s durable enough to withstand the rigors of everyday use and is resistant to common wear and tear.
Color Options: The HB-90A lens hood is available in a classic black finish, which matches the aesthetic of most interchangeable lenses.
