Tamron HA058 Lens Hood for 35-150mm f/2.8 Di III VXD, Black

Compatible lens hood for 35-150mm f/2.8

This dedicated hood is designed exclusively for the Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8 Di III VXD lens. It attaches securely to the front of the optic to block stray light that causes flare and ghosting. Photographers using this zoom range gain improved contrast and colour fidelity in bright or backlit conditions. The accessory also shields the front element from accidental impacts and scratches.

Bayonet mount limits hood orientation

The hood locks onto the lens via a bayonet connection that fixes its position relative to the barrel. Because the zoom extends and rotates during focal-length changes, the petal shape must stay aligned to avoid vignetting at the 35mm end. Users cannot rotate the hood independently for storage without removing it completely. This mounting method prevents accidental detachment during handling but requires the hood to be reversed or removed to fit many lens cases.

Petal profile cut for 35mm wide end

The petal profile is calculated specifically for the 35mm wide-angle setting of this zoom. At this focal length the cut-outs match the sensor frame corners, preventing the hood from intruding into the image circle. Zooming toward 150mm narrows the field of view, so the hood remains effective without vignetting across the entire range. Buyers needing a hood for a different focal-length range or thread size cannot use this model.
