It's difficult to correct as the hood is fixed to the front of the lens and doesn't telescope as the the lens is zoomed. It is a poor compromise as it's designed to accept a wide angle of view which means that at the narrow end it affords little protection from sources of flare just out of frame. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
