About this generator
Cut flare and protect the front element. Petal hoods let wider lenses see past the short sides.
How to use
- Find the filter size on the lens cap or inside the lens front (e.g. ⌀58).
- Pick the length: check the corners of a test shot for vignetting.
- Print thread side down at 0.12 mm layers.
Printing tips
- Use matte black filament: shiny hoods reflect light into the lens.
- A petal hood screws in at a random angle: rotate the hood to where you like it and leave it there.
