Nikon HB-36 Lens Hood for AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 70-300 mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED Black
The Nikon HB-36 Bayonet Lens Hood is made specifically for the Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G VR Lens. It prevents unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of the lens. The "petal" shape of this lens hood maximizes the amount of hood coverage for the minimum amount of weight and hood area.
