[QUOTE="AC016, post: 61977, member: 9619"] A bayonet lens hood refers to the type of attachment; in other words, it is not screwed on. If you are taking wide angle shots, do not get a lens hood that is to "tall". Basically, you are wanting to prevent flare and that is done when the lens hood prevents light from hitting the front lens element from the side. If you are using a telephoto lens, you want a bit of a "taller" lens hood. What you can do, is look up your lens online and see what lens hood is recommened for it. [/QUOTE]
