## Overview

The Fotodiox Reversible Lens Hood Kit is a precision-engineered accessory for Sony E-Mount 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS lenses, featuring dual 40.5mm and 52mm filter threads, a reversible tulip-shaped hood to minimize flare and glare, and robust impact protection.

## Description

This reversible, flower style, lens hood helps prevent lens flare and reduces sun glare by extending and shading the front lens element from exposure. The mounting ring attaches directly to the lens, the hood snaps onto the ring which also provides access to both the original 40.5mm filter threads as well as larger 52mm filter threads. The hood is detachable from the mounting ring and reversible for storage, leaving any filters and caps in place on the lens regardless of the hood orientation. This allows you to use the original Sony lens cap or the larger lens cap included in the kit as well as leaving protection filters in place no matter which way the hood is attached.Lens hoods are primarily designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of the lens. In addition, since the end of the lens is extended, you also get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact. This lens hood maximizes the amount of hood coverage for the minimum amount of weight and hood area because of its flower shape.Kit Includes:Reversible Flower Hood40.5/52mm Mounting Ring52mm Inner Pinch Lens Cap

Review: Nice lens hood for the Sony 16-50mm OSS Kit lens - Nice lens hood with a metal threaded ring to attach to the Sony 16-50mm OSS Kit lens. It is made of sturdy plastic and fits on the ring adapter with 4 spring-loaded detent balls. Does not affect the picture quality (No vignetting). The hood could be reversed when putting your camera in the bag. Black matte finish. Fits perfectly. This is the hood Sony forgot to make for the Sony 16-50mm OSS Kit lens. It is not only functional, but it also looks very nice! Thank you Fotodiox for this product!
Review: Awesome kit for the Sony 3.5-5.6/ 16-50mm OSS lens! - Just received this Fotodiox lens hood for the Sony 3.5-5.6/ 16-50mm OSS lens. There were mixed reviews, some people saying you couldn't use this hood with this lens, others saying that there wasn't a lens cap with this hood kit. I received a hood, lens cap and cap tether, just like the photo and description said. The hood threaded without any problems and the quality seems great! It also came with a lens cap (which replaces the OEM cap) and it seems to fit and work just fine. The hood pulls off easily in order to reverse for storage and the mounted position seems sturdy. For $10 this little hood and kit is great in my opinion. I saw a comment that claimed this hood would cause focal obstruction, so I tested it out and I didn't find that to be true with the Sony A6300. No vignetting or blur with this particular lens, I can't say the same for wider lenses.

## Features

- 40.5mm & 52mm Front Threads for Filters and Lens Cap
- Hood Is Easily And Quickly Reversible On The Mounting Ring
- Increase Color And Saturation By Reducing Lens Flares And Glares

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is there any vignetting with this hood**
A: There is absolutely no vignetting with the hood, while using it on the lens it was made for (the Sony 16-50/Selp 1650).

**Q: I see in your image that also accepts 40.5 and 52mm filter, so.. ¿what mm filter is preferible 40.5 or 52? my cam is Alpha 5000 40.5mm 16-50**
A: IMHO I would use the 52mm filter for ease of changing from a skylight to a polarized, etc.  In addition the hood will cause the lens to vignette at 16mm which would only be enhanced by using a 40.5mm filter between the lens and the hood.

**Q: Hi, I already have a polarized lens, will it fit this hood? btws i have the sony aplha a5000 with the kit lens that it comes with.**
A: If it is a 52mm threaded filter it will fit step up ring or the step up ring will thread onto a 40.5mm threaded filter.  Be advised that with a 52mm filter attached between the step up ring and the hood there will be vignetting.

**Q: Can the hood easily come on and off (for use between shots)? (granted - the adapter ring would need to stay on.)**
A: The entire hood is two pieces.  There is the flat round piece that screws into the lens and the other piece is the hood that sticks out.  The hood is applied by snapping it onto the flat round piece.  When you're done with it, snap it off, turn it around and snap it back on backwards.  pretty convenient.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you use this lens, get this hood
*by P***O on September 9, 2024*

It's beefier than most factory hoods, but the overall design idea is great. I've never seen this concept before, but it works great. The hood can be attached two ways, inwards and outwards. Or it can be removed while the attaching ring can stay on the lens increasing the distance between the glass and the camera bad for example, about 1/4".
