Is this a bayonet or a screw on hood? How does a screw on hood work with a polarized filter?

This is a bayonet mounted hood and should mount fine with a filter attached to the lens.

It is a bayonet mount, requiring a 90 degree twist to engage the detent. While it engages behind a polarizer, it is virtually impossible to turn the filter, as there is little room between the filter's diameter and the hood. Also, if using it in conjunction with the built-in flash, it will block a semicircle of light at the bottom of shot - so it should be removed if using the camera's built-in flash. I have not tried it with a Speedlight flash unit, but suspect it would do the same.

The hood is bayonet mounted. Filters that screw into the lens threads will not affect the installation or performance of the lens hood. You can also reverse the hood on the lens for storage.

I have both a bayoneted tulip hood and a non, (the kind that screws on) The bayonet mount is by far superior

A bayonet mount tulip lens hood is furnished with this lens. If you a purchasing an aftermarket lens hood, DO NOT purchase a screw mount hood (they're called screw mount for a reason).

Hi Sam, I owned the 58mm set of these filters and was not happy with them. They are listed as "Japan Optics" but are actually made in China. The warming filter is plastic, not glass. The CP has a minimal polarizing effect at best. And, from what I can tell compared to my Hoya filters, these are definitely not coated optics. I sent mine back yesterday. YMMV. Cheers, SB

You can't put a filter or a lens hood onto the lens. It has no threads & it retracts when turned off. The camera has some digital 'filters' built in, but that doesn't protect your lens like a real UV filter for instance that you would leave on.

Yes.. It is a removeable hood that fits, bayonet style, on the lens...and works well.

IF THE THREAD SIZE ON THE HOOD MATCHES THE ONE ON THE END OF THE LENS THE ANSWER IS YES If not get the hood with the thread size to match the lens the lens will be marked the same goes for the filter you can use either Pola or Uv I tend to put the filter on the lens first then screw the hood into the filter hope this helps.

It's a lens hood, but it only works without a flter. The hood does come in the box but is awkward to install. I had to shop around for a while to find the right lens hood which would m ount directly on a 52mm filter. It's the Mennon 52mm 16:9 Wide Angle hood, available through Amazon. Good luck!

My model is slightly different but there should be a round button on the side that secures the lens in place. You slide this away from the lens and twist the lens to the left to disengage the bayonet.

I Couldn´t tell about filters, but what I can tell you is that is a headache to keep de lens cap in place while using this hood...

The lens hood screws into the filter threads. The lens hood comes with a lock ring which holds the hood in place.

It attaches just fine with one filter, and although I have not tried a second filter, I can see plenty of clearance so it shouldn't be a problem. Also, this hood does not cause any vignetting.

You should be able to, it isn't easy but you can thread the filter on after the hood is attached to the camera. I use a CPL for most of my Auto photography and it isn't conducive to that, but there are few lens hoods that are. If you don't need to adjust the filter that you are installing I don't see why there would be any issue using any filter with this hood. It isn't the easiest thing to take on and off, just make sure that you depress the buttons on the side to retract the bayonets. I think that is what others that left bad reviews on this hood were having.

This adapter is not a lens, but a filter adapter. It allows you to use various kinds of filters, such as UV and polarizing. Keep in mind that it will vignette the image at the wide angle setting of the zoom feature on the camera, using both the adapter and hood. Using just the adapter makes using the zoom feature unusable.

This type of hood has an intermediate ring that screws into the filter thread and it has a lock ring to position the hood. If the filter fits, the hood fits. Whether the hood will or won't mask the corners depends on the focal length of the lens. I cannot help you more than that. For the price it's not a great risk! Good luck.

Hi, as i understand the L820 has no lens thread and therefore no "official" way of adapting neither a hood nor a filter. I found a company that created a set for this: KIWIFOTOS LA-62L820T. It is in ebay though.

Katrina, the hood attaches to the ring bayonet-style - it's super simple to remove, but stays on very securely when it's on. I typically keep it on, unless I'm using the optical viewfinder - the hood blocks some of the frame when using it.
