Attach the lens hood properly. Otherwise, the lens hood may not have any
effect or may be partially reflected in the image.
When the lens hood is attached properly, the lens hood index (red line)
matches the red index mark on the hood. (There may be no lens hood index on
some lenses.)
Remove the lens hood when using the flash. Otherwise, the lens hood blocks
the flash light and may appear as a shadow on the image.
To store the lens hood after shooting, attach the lens hood to the lens
backward.

Notes on changing the lens
When changing the lens, if dust or debris gets inside the camera and adheres to
the surface of the image sensor (the part that converts the light to an electric
signal), it may appear as dark spots on the image, depending on the shooting
environment.
This camera is equipped with an anti-dust function that causes the image sensor
to vibrate a little when the power is turned off, and the camera’s image sensor is
coated with an anti-dust coating to prevent dust from adhering to the image
sensor. However, always make sure to attach/remove the lens quickly away from
dusty locations.
