Is the hood reversible? Just thinking about when I put it in my camera bag. Is it something that I would need take off or can it be flipped around?

No, it's not reversible. However it will slip over the lens so it doesn't take much space, but it doesn't attach.

I own the thing. It's reversible. In most bags, you will not need to take it off and reverse it. I use a Tamrac Aero 50 bag and I don't have to.

Yes this hood is reversible on the EF-S 18-55mm non-IS, IS and IS II lenses as well as the EF-S 55-250mm IS lens however it does not fit the new EF-S 18-55mm IS STM lens and I do not think this will fit the new EF-S 55-250mm IS STM lens.

Yes, it is reversible but I don't think it's necessary to reverse it. It's only a quarter inch above the lens cap; it fits fine in my bag.

There is no need to take this hood off of your lens very slim line and I'm sure will fit just fine in your camera bag

You can pull the eyecup off the mount that slides onto the camera and reverse it. I use my left eye also.Good Luck

Either works... You can remove it completely and hold it separately or you can leave it snapped and it hangs below the camera while taking your shot. Occasionally I leave it off if I'm just holding the camera by the strap (sometimes a little more convenient without it completely). Otherwise if I'm going to throw the camera in my purse and don't want it to bang around I will leave it on and just open the top when I'm ready to use.

No, You will have to remove the lens hood. The camera fits perfectly into the case.

In my bag the hood, when not used, collapses onto the inside of the bag where it is attached by velcro. Hope this helps.

I actually have it installed facing froward to use as a parking aid and the image is not reversed. Unfortunately, the image can't be reversed on this camera but for the price I was OK with it.

as is? no, if you do the image on your display will be upside down. But if you have a small screwdriver, you can take apart the camera, rotate the camera lens 180* and reseal with a hot glue gun, then reassemble. I did this to mine, and has held up for the last 2 years with no issues. Doing this will most likely void any warranty or anything like that but for $9.99, it was a risk i was willing to take. If you should take on this type of project, do so at your own risk.

I'm wondering the same thing! I guess I'll find out once i get the case but if you or anyone knows...I thought the lens adaper was supposed to be left on so if the case doesn't work with it that will seem to make it worthless...I just can't see taking it off and on eevery time you want to put the camera back in the case!

yes with the lens cover, no to the hood, the tripod was on the weak side but is usable. I love the camera, it shoots great videos as well as award winning stills. I would recommend getting a telephoto lens for it eventually. rdalepotrykus@yahoo.com if you have any more questions about this camera. It was well worth the money paid for it.

The hood comes inside out, so flip it the other way.. it doesnt fit overly snug, but it will close all of the gaps...

Just rotate it out. You install the adapt ring first. then the hood. You can keep the ring that and left the hood out.

Hi Rhonda! I would remove the rubber hood when changing filters as it will be easier to do. You can push the hood back to allow more light and get rid of the tunnel look when taking pics.Tried to respond on a previous note, but it wouldn't send??!! You have a might fine camera, I hope you get much enjoyment from it over time. IF you have questions, please drop a line andI will get back to you quickly. Very Best, Mike

Karen....extremely easy to reverse the hood....just be careful you don't cross the threads....go slow. But it does work!ed

Yes, mine came from the manufacturer with a removable (of course, lol) lens hood. It is the plastic type that attaches to the front of the lens and secures with a quarter-turn.

There is not a lens cap that fits the larger open end of this hood that I know of. We have to slide the cap inside to take it on and off. You can twist the hood off and on without interfering with the lens cap when putting the camera back into a bag for example.

Hi. I like this jacket...the hood does not come off, it is attached. But, the jacket is very light and packable, and the hood rolls down and secures with a velcro tab, like a rolled collar. I hope this helps.

I'm prett sure it is reversible although I haven't tried to reverse it. I have used it with Nikon lenses without reversing it and was happy with it. For the money, it's a good product.
