( character_reference [Lens Info. Confirmation])

Insert the lens straight in.

Inserting this at an angle to attach it may damage the camera lens mount.

After removing the lens, be sure to attach the body cap and the lens rear cap.

Attaching a Lens Hood

For recording against strong backlight, a lens hood can reduce the inclusion of unwanted light in images and drop in contrast resulting from the irregular reflection of light that occurs within the lens.

It allows you take more beautiful pictures by cutting out excess light.

When attaching the lens hood (flower shape) supplied with the interchangeable lens (H-ES12060/H-FS12060)

Hold the lens hood by placing your fingers as shown in the figure.

Do not hold the lens hood in such a way that it will become bent.
