It reduces glare in strong sun light, but, the lens hood attachment fastens poorly to its lens filter adapter.

To rule out any lens movement hitting the filter, I insert an O-ring [15/16"OD x 13/16"ID x 1/16" made by DANCO (#32)], then screw in the adapter ring about 5/8 to 3/4 turn to secure it. This adapter comes with a 49mm clear filter. A very good deal.

• A lens hood is one of the most important accessories for each lens you own. A lens hood provides multiple functions: it shades the lens from stray light, improving your contrast and image quality.
• In inclement weather, it can assist in keeping moisture or wind-blown debris off the lens; and it protects the front barrel from the inevitable impacts against walls, door frames, and other real-life obstacles.
