erl Posted July 3, 2012 Share #4 Â Posted July 3, 2012 Trading vignetting for flare? (the risk of, of course) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted July 3, 2012 Share #5 Â Posted July 3, 2012 Use the effect to creative advantage or remove it in post processing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
250swb Posted July 3, 2012 Share #6 Â Posted July 3, 2012 A little vignetting is far easier to remove in post processing than flare, so keep with the hood. Â Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
erl Posted July 3, 2012 Share #7 Â Posted July 3, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) I should add, that IMO Many Leica hoods are more cosmetic than functional. A third party hood is preferable if serious flare is a possibility. The downside of 'compact design'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wda Posted July 3, 2012 Share #10 Â Posted July 3, 2012 I should add, that IMO Many Leica hoods are more cosmetic than functional........ Possibly for flare, but I value mine as much for the extra protection they give against wandering fingers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
