The dedicated Vello HB-47 Lens Hood for Camerasis specifically designed for use with Nikon's 50mm f/1.8G AF-S & 50mm f/1.4G AF-S lenses. It is primarily used to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of it. A dedicated hood is crafted to perfectly suit the specific focal length of the lens it is designed for. Additionally, this hood features a non-glare matte finish on the interior surface to further prevent or limit lens flare. Also, since the end of the lens is extended, you get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact.

The bayonet mount is designed to also work in the reversed position, allowing the hood to be placed backwards over the lens for a more compact storage solution.

Q: 10. vello hood for AF-P 18-55mm DX lens?

A: No, this hood is for older variations of the 18-55mm DX. For the AF-P lens you need hood model HB-N106. I think that some of the fit issues which people have is due to there being about five versions of this DX lens over the years and a little homework is required to figure out which hood is compatible.
