What lens is the ALC-SH175 lens hood compatible with?
The ALC-SH175 is a dedicated lens hood designed exclusively for the Sony FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS lens (SEL300F28GM). It matches the lens's black finish and G Master aesthetics.
Does the ALC-SH175 lens hood help reduce flare?
Yes. The hood is designed to block stray light from entering the lens, reducing reflections and ghosting while improving contrast and color fidelity in bright conditions.
Does the ALC-SH175 provide physical protection for the lens?
Yes. In addition to blocking light, it helps protect the front element against impacts, scratches, dust, and moisture, which is especially valuable in sports and wildlife environments. A rubberized front edge allows the lens to be set down hood-first with less risk of damage.
How does the ALC-SH175 attach to the lens?
It uses a round, bayonet-type mount with a lock-button mechanism for secure, fast attachment and removal. You align the red line on the hood with the red line on the lens, then rotate until it clicks into place.
Can the ALC-SH175 be reversed for storage?
Yes. The hood can be reversed onto the lens for compact storage during transport, helping to minimize bulk.
What is the ALC-SH175 made from?
It uses a new design with high-strength, lightweight engineering plastic that balances durability and low weight, along with a rubberized front ring for added protection.
Can the ALC-SH175 be used as a replacement hood?
Yes. The ALC-SH175 can serve as a replacement hood for the FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS lens if the original is lost or damaged.
How much does the ALC-SH175 lens hood cost?
MSRP is listed as $229.99. 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.
