Hood Kit Canon
What is the purpose / function of a lens hood?
I have a Canon XTi with the lens that comes with the kit. What are the uses of a bell and worth getting?
A lens hood shades the lens from the light coming in and causing glare and reflections on the lens shown in the picture end. Flare is usually a circle of light "just hangs there" somewhere in the picture. Some people call these things "orbs" and say they are caused by spirits, so maybe you've seen this before. Glare is just a general cleaning of the image that removes the color and detail. You can compare this with the way the sunlight makes it difficult to see through the windshield of a car. I posted an example on Flickr to show that the reflections and glare are. In the picture above, you'll notice very little color or detail and a couple of "ghosts" seeking artifacts that are visible between the sun and the corner of the image. In the bottom image, useed a parasol and tried to aim the camera in the same direction. There is still some evidence of lighting on the left end of main building, but some of the colors and detail is better in this picture. Had I turned right enough, the lens cover has eliminated much of the reflections and flare and would not have been much more color and detail in the image. http://www.flickr.com/photos/samfeinstein/1478663087/
