[QUOTE="aroy, post: 321774, member: 16090"] The only lense hood I use is the one that came with the 35mm F1.8 DX. I do not use one with the kit 18-55 or with the 50mm F1.8 AF. Lense hood does help in certain situations, especially with stray sunlight hitting the front element and producing flare. As you go wider the depth of the hood becomes shallower and after one point you have to use the petal shaped hood, which helps in some cases and does not if the sun shines through the kink in the petal. That said, a hood gives you protection from damage due to vertical fall. [/QUOTE]
