What lens is the Sony ALC-SH140 lens hood designed for?
The ALC-SH140 is the dedicated lens hood for the Sony SAL70300G2 (70-300mm F4.5-5.6 G SSM II) full-frame A-mount lens. It is the hood originally supplied with this telephoto zoom.
What shape is the ALC-SH140 lens hood, and why does it matter?
The ALC-SH140 is a petal-shaped (flower-shaped) hood, which optimizes shading while reducing the risk of vignetting at the wide 70mm end of the zoom range on full-frame cameras.
How does the ALC-SH140 lens hood attach to the lens?
It uses a bayonet-type mount that twists into place on the front of the lens, allowing for quick, secure attachment and easy removal.
Does using the ALC-SH140 lens hood improve image quality?
Yes. By blocking stray light, the hood helps reduce flare and ghosting, which can improve overall contrast and color in your images—especially in strong or side lighting.
Does the ALC-SH140 lens hood provide any physical protection?
In addition to controlling light, the hood offers a degree of mechanical protection for the front element against minor impacts, fingerprints, rain, and dust.
What are the dimensions and weight of the ALC-SH140 lens hood?
The ALC-SH140 measures approximately 3 7/8" x 4" (96.7 x 98.8 mm) in diameter and length, and weighs about 2.3 oz (63 g).
Is the ALC-SH140 compatible with other Sony lenses?
The ALC-SH140 is designed specifically for the Sony SAL70300G2. Using it on other lenses may not provide optimal shading and could cause vignetting.
How much does the Sony ALC-SH140 lens hood cost?
MSRP is listed as $51.99. Given that, these models can go on sale from time to time, and there are several other opportunities to save on price like through their group discounts for education, healthcare and military/veterans (ID.me & Unidays) along with their free loyalty program that gives up to 5% back in points.
