LENS HOOD
EN
The Leica Summilux-SL 1:1.4/50 ASPH. is supplied with a lens hood
1
ideally matched to optical
paths. Thanks to its symmetrical bayonet it can be fitted quickly and simply, or vice versa for
space-saving storage. In both cases, when the lens cover is removed, it is initially fitted so that one of
the index points on the lens hood
is precisely opposite the index point on the front mount of the
2b
lens
. In this alignment, the lens hood is fitted and turned by approx. 30° until it clearly engages,
1a
audibly and noticeably.
For as long as the camera is being carried and used ready for photography, the lens hood should
always remain fitted. It provides effective protection against contrast-reducing stray light and also
against damage and soiling of the front lens, e.g. from accidental fingerprints.
FILTERS
E82 screw-on filters can be used on the Leica Summilux-SL 1:1.4/50 ASPH. The appopriate fitlers are
available from Leica (available models: see Leica Camera AG website).
