Product Description

Product Description
This lens hood shades the lens from stray light, improving your contrast and image quality. In inclement weather, it can assist in keeping moisture or wind-blown debris off the lens, and protects the front barrel from the inevitable impacts against walls, door frames, and other real-life obstacles.

3.0 out of 5 stars Generic 55mm and all plastic, April 2, 2009
This is reasonably priced for what it is, but it's a generic threaded hood. The hood ring for a Sony Alpha / Konika-Minolta lense won't be used.

Since the threads are so fine, the coupler REALLY should be aluminum rather than plastic. You need to be very careful when screwing this on so as to not strip the threads on the hood.

There is an adjustment ring on the back which, once you're lined up, you can use as a positive stop for future remove/adds and to help keep the hood from spinning loose.
