Overview
Lens Hood 25.5 mm Folding Rubber Hood with Screw Thread Black Universal Against Glare and Side Light

The small rubber lens hood is designed for lenses with a filter thread of 25.5 mm. It screws directly onto the thread on the front of the lens, where it holds securely without the need for any additional adapter. The hood helps to reduce side light that hits the front lens and can create glare or reduce contrast in the image. It is made from flexible rubber, making it lightweight, pliable, and free of sharp edges. It is suitable for outdoor photography on sunny days as well as for working with side light indoors.

The main advantage of the rubber hood is its folding design. The hood can be folded back over the lens, so it takes up minimal space when carried in a bag or backpack, and you do not need to remove it before storing the camera. Before shooting, simply return it to the working position. The flexible material also absorbs minor impacts to the front of the lens, such as when you accidentally lean the camera against a wall or table.

Rubber hoods are popular mainly due to their simplicity. They have no bayonet locks or moving parts that could come loose or break, and anyone can attach it in a matter of seconds. The hood is suitable for photographing landscapes, architecture, backlit portraits, and for video recording. When shooting against the light, it is advisable to watch the direction of the sunlight and angle the camera so that the hood shades the front lens as effectively as possible.

The hood should be wiped occasionally with a dry or slightly damp cloth. When screwing it on, proceed gently and do not overtighten the thread to avoid damaging the lens thread. You can usually find the thread size on the front of the lens or on its cap, where it is indicated next to the diameter symbol. If you do not use the hood for an extended period, store it in an unfolded position in a dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the shape of the rubber. The hood can be left permanently on the lens, so it is always ready for use whenever you decide to shoot against the light or in bright midday sun.

The folding rubber hood with a 25.5 mm thread is a practical accessory for anyone who photographs outdoors and wants to achieve images without unnecessary glare. Thanks to the screw attachment, it holds firmly on the lens. The folded hood will remain on the lens even during transport. Its simple design without moving mechanisms means easy use. The black surface is unobtrusive and suits most cameras. The hood is supplied as 1 piece in one size, so please check the thread diameter of your lens before purchasing. It is an uncomplicated accessory appreciated by both novice and more experienced photographers.
