cause i have no tripod, and i always use those cement type thinggy to stabilize my view/shoot.. not just to show off la, i have use

do you know the function of having a hood?

to protect the lens... hehe, i can make another good use of it mah

yes one of the use is protect lens....
but the main use for a hood is to avoid ghosting/flares

Actually the main function of a hood is to reduce flare..... or rather, stray light from entering the lense

Well yes, it does protect the front element but the main purpose of a hood is to block unwanted lights.

In fact you know what? Go ahead and buy a hood that looked big enough for you.
And I bet you right after you shoot once you will regret buying it.

ooh, ooh, thanks guys!! i gain smarter now! then i think i should just stick with the ori one

buy 77mm screw type hood ma then buy adapter fit ur 58mm lens

the bigger it is, the more eye contact you get

the more unnatural you feel too

so bro, i found that EW-60C fit the 18-55mm

how much is that hood market price?

Juz get a third party hood~
probably cost u rm30 plus minus~

and the hood u looking for is a 58mm diameter hood since u using 18-55

the bigger your hood is the bigger ur lense is the more *NO, NO!* you get from those places that some don allow SLR unless u put in bag

Just did something for the lulz.

Wah nice effect! lol

LOL.. nice one bro!

Lol...really too vigggy

wah, no need to add frames to the photos... now it is automatic

And you guys think its funny >.>

Don't bother with the 18-55 IS's hood. It's so shallow, its useless. I use to have one last time, so I know.
