JJC HB-102 Lens Hood for NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 77mm

This bayonet lens hood from JJC reduces stray light and adds front-end protection for full-frame and APS-C Z-mount cameras when shooting with mid-range zooms. It is compatible with lenses such as the NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S and allows mounting a 77 mm filter and lens cap, making it useful for on-location work and everyday shooting where contrast and flare control matter.

Key Points

The hood extends and shades the lens front to minimise flare and preserve contrast when working in bright or mixed lighting. Its rear-mounting design also allows it to be fitted in reverse for compact storage, which helps when you need to save space in a camera bag. The interior has a non-reflective finish that reduces internal reflections and keeps highlights cleaner. For photographers who travel or handle gear in busy environments, the rigid ABS construction provides a degree of impact protection against knocks and scratches. 😊

Practical Tips

Fit the hood in its forward position to maximise shading and reduce off-axis light entering the lens. When packing lenses for travel, place the hood on backwards to keep the kit more compact and protect the lens front. If you routinely use wide-angle framing with heavy vignetting-prone lenses, check that the hood does not intrude at the shortest focal length, as compatibility depends on lens design. 📷

Usage Recommendations

Use this hood alongside a UV or ND filter screwed onto the front if you require additional surface protection or exposure control, since the design allows filter and cap use without removing the hood. Consider that, according to the manufacturer, while the hood is designed to avoid vignetting on the listed lenses, third-party accessories or stacked filters may affect the field of view.
