I would love a tulip hood for my S4000? What impact would it have on my 30x optical zoom? Will this work well with my camera?

I have taken mine off since I spent more time removing it to get various shots than keeping it on. But that's my way of taking photos. Perhaps it would be different for you. At the price, it was worth it to get the filters even if the hood didn't work out so well.

I've totally forgotten since I sold mine with my long lens. Sorry. I can say that it worked well with both my 300mm 500mm.

The hood is perfect for my camera and I use it to deflect sunlight. Care should be used in connecting it and make sure it "clicks" into place. No problems with it since purchase for my SX30.

I don't think it's good for a full frame camera. I used to use it on my 60D but now on my 5D it is very vignetted. Interested to hear what sawing the removable hood would look like, not sure if it'd fix the problem though.

Amazon asked that I reply to you so I guess I must.I sold this lens and the Panasonic camera about 4 years ago. It did not do much for me. I am much happier with a good DSLR and telephoto lenses. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

I bought the kit last year. Adapter, filters and cap work fine in the Canon SX40 HS. The ruber hood does not, as cuts the corners in 24 mm lens setting. I am very satisfied with this kit. Excellent cost/benefit.

i'm sorry to tell you that this is not compatible with the full frame sensor. you can use it in dx mode, otherwise the image will leave a lot of black border on the image. someone of the lens user, cut off (very difficult operation) the petal hood (that is fixed) to enlarge the covered area on the full frame sensor, and obtain an image area above 180 degrees

The hood connects onto the groves at the end of the lens by screwing in. Almost every single lens has the groves, I have actually never seen a lens that does not. So as long as you have a lens for your 3100 it should fit. Hope this helps

I have a D3100 kit and no the hood did not come with it. I did purchase one from Amazon after reading on their site that it would fit a D3100. The hood "does not" fit any of my lens.

I don't own the 3200, but after spending several months in deciding which camera I wanted to purchase, I do know that it is a bit smaller than the 7000. That being said, it should fit perfectly with a lens attached. It is a nice case to toss in a back back. Happy shooting! ;o)

I am not so sure what lens it has for the camera since I havent seen the camera. I bought the hood for my 5DMarkII just for long range telephoto lens. It is for 52 mm and if you have 52 mm lenses it will. The hood is for thread mount and it's quite decent for the price if you are not a perfectionist.

This hood will be placed on the lens of your camera D3100 (I assume it's a Nikon) whenever the lens diameter is 52 mm. verifies the lens of your camera and make sure it is the correct diameter, before buying it, once you get the hood with the diameter of your lens just have to screw it on the front of the lens. I hope I have been helpful.

It depends on the lens. if you shoot wide angles, the tulip lens is less likely to vignette the photo. I use tulip hoods on my 17-50 and 18-55, but regular hoods on everything else. On a normal lens or telephoto lens. the regular hoods works better for protection and glint reduction.

The Camera make and model doesn't make a difference. These are for lenses. One of them in the kit will fit your zoom. Usually without the hood, however. I use the spares for camera bag padding and tools.

It will fit, but there's a point in the focus pull at which a bit of the hood will show up in the corners of the frame. I shoot a lot of talking heads and product shots so I crop everything anyway and don't really give a rat's bum... It looks better than a tulip.

Yes the "Accessory Kit" works GREAT with my PS SX500 IS, I used the polarizer on a trip overseas and the blue skies and water were reflection free. The only lens I can't see using that much is the megenta one but it's there if I need it. Go for it the price is right and results are worth it.

Like Alfus, it is installed on my Canon EF-S 55-250. From what I have read and researched, hoods, even the generics, are generally made for a specific make/model lens. This one I thinks fits both the 55-250, and the Canon 75-300. You can usually check out a lens makers web page, or the lens instruction manual, and they will specify which of their lens hoods will fit, if it is not supplied with the lens when purchased.
