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.

Hello, It fits fine on mine. The filter has an internal tread so it's outside dimension is exactly the same size as the outside of the lens. I have not had any issues with the hood showing up in pictures. I don't think you can put it on wrong, but the shorter flanges should orient side to side. Hope this helps...

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.

The one i received does not have threading on the front.... you could use a hood but it would have to be one that fits over the front of the lens and that is a little bigger than 68mm according to their website....

The hood should not interfere with the normal lens cap. At least it doesn't on mine. I am able to use the cap that came with the lens.

I'm not sure, but I think that this hood is for lenses only 17-85mm and 18-135

Almost...The lens itself is compatible: the proble is the plastic "hood". It protrudes and casts shadows. Some enthusiasts have been known to "trim" the hood to get maximum use of the sensor. The biggest problem with doing this is - the lens cap won't fit any more. Not without rubbing on the glass, anyway.

I have purchased extra lens caps for mine. You just need to order a 67mm diameter cap. http://www.amazon.com/Lens-Cap-Bundle-Snap--including/dp/B00DZIFWSO/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1429674569&sr=1-2&keywords=67mm+lens+cap As for the hood, I haven't had to order a new one or additional ones but I imagine you can (again 67mm).

This lens hood - like most any other - is designed to fit a specific diameter lens. Look on the front of your specific lens for the diameter - given in millimeters and often followed by a circle with a vertical line through it (meaning diameter). Match the diameter of the lens hood to the diameter of you lens. This AGFA - like most lens hoods - is available in a variety of diameters. If your lens is 77mm it will work. If not - then order the matching diameter.

The company makes hoods for about every size lens. You have to determine what Canon lens you have to get proper fitment. It is dependant on the lens, not the camera

Not sure of width of front lens, I have a 43mm hood I use on the camera when not using this lens. Might be worth looking into though..hmm.

I have a 70-300 on one of my d4's and have no problem fitting it with the lens hood on. The other camera is a d4 with a 24-70 lens.

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.

This hood is for a specific Nikon lens. It's not a screw-in hood and has no threads. It won't fit a lens it wasn't designed for. The hood has spring-loaded tabs that match a groove on the lens rim. The hood slips over and slightly behind the front of the lens. The tabs snap into the groove and hold fast. The lens's existing threads are unencumbered and filters may be installed or removed as needed. In any case, you shouldn't place any filters on a hood. Filters should be placed as close to a lens's front element as feasible to minimize any internal reflections and optical artifacts.

It's a 14mm hood with outside threads.. If your lens is the proper size and has inside threads to accept the hood it should.

This hood has to be screwed into the threading of the 18-55mm lens. It gives the option to use the other mount feature but that hasn't worked for me because it doesn't fit that way.
