Description
Can a lens hood be used with the camera? (PowerShot SX540 HS)
Solution
Solution |
Lens Hood [LH- DC60] (sold separately) can be used with the camera.
|
Lens Hood [LH-DC60]
Prevents extraneous light outside the angle of view from entering the lens and causing flares or ghosting, which reduce image quality. |
Using the Lens Hood (Sold Separately) For wide-angle shots of backlit subjects without using the flash, attach optional Lens Hood [LH-DC60] to prevent light outside the angle of view from entering the lens.
IMPORTANT
- Camera accessories are sold separately. Note that availability varies by area, and some accessories may no longer be available.
- Vignetting may occur if you use the built-in flash when the lens hood is attached.
NOTE
- The filter adapter and a lens hood cannot be attached to the camera at the same time.
1. Make sure the camera is off.
2. Align the lens hood mark ![](/library/attachments/CanonUSA/TroubleshootingContents/Images/Global/G0095950.gif) with the camera mark ![](/library/attachments/CanonUSA/TroubleshootingContents/Images/Global/G0095951.gif) , and turn the lens hood in the direction of the arrow until it locks in place.
- To remove the lens hood, turn it the opposite direction.
3. To attach the lens hood inverted (as shown) when the hood is not used, align the lens hood mark ![](/library/attachments/CanonUSA/TroubleshootingContents/Images/Global/G0095950.gif) with the camera mark ![](/library/attachments/CanonUSA/TroubleshootingContents/Images/Global/G0095951.gif) , and turn the lens hood in the direction of the arrow until it locks in place.
