Lens hood Olympus LH-55B

The main reason for using the Lens hood Olympus LH-55B is that it shades the lens from direct sunlight on a sunny day. This reduces or eliminates the lens flare, but it is also another layer of protection for the lens. The purpose of a lens hood is to prevent flare that degrades the quality of a photographer’s work.

Like the lens cap, this Olympus lens hood can also provide proper protection to the camera lens. A lens hood adds a barrrier of space between the glass and the environment protecting it in an accidental drop, from dust and dirt, and scratches. It gives added protection so the photographer will not have to continually take the lens cap on and off.

Additionally the lens hood will protect your lens from rain and moisture.
