Product Information
Full details
The Sigma LH876-03 Lens Hood is a professional-grade accessory tailored specifically for the 24-35mm F2 DG HSM Art lens, designed for photographers and videographers who need to maintain contrast in challenging lighting. Its primary benefit is the reduction of lens flare and ghosting by blocking stray light, while also serving as a rugged physical barrier to protect your glass from accidental bumps; however, it is strictly non-compatible with other lens models due to its specific mounting geometry.

FAQs
Can I use filters with this hood attached?
Yes, standard circular filters can be attached to the front of the lens while the hood is in use.
Is this lens hood made of plastic or metal?
It is constructed from high-grade, impact-resistant composite plastic designed for durability and low weight.
Does this hood fit the 24-70mm lens?
No, this hood is precision-engineered specifically for the 24-35mm F2 DG HSM Art lens.
How do I store the hood when not in use?
You can reverse-mount the hood onto the lens barrel to keep your setup compact.
Why does the shape look irregular?
The petal design is intentional; it is shaped to correspond with the rectangular sensor frame to provide maximum light blockage without entering the field of view.
Troubleshooting
Hood feels loose or won't click into place
Check the mounting channel for dirt or sand buildup and wipe clean with a dry cloth.
Visible vignetting at the wide end of the zoom range
Ensure the hood is rotated fully into the locked position; an partially rotated hood will obstruct the frame.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly improves image contrast in bright or backlit conditions
- Provides reliable physical protection for the expensive front lens element
- Precise bayonet mount ensures perfect alignment every time
- Durable build quality matches the professional nature of the Art series lenses
Cons
- Specific to the 24-35mm F2 DG HSM lens only
- Takes up more room in a camera bag than a simple lens cap
- May require extra care when removing from the bag to avoid catching on dividers
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the LH876-03, align the mounting mark on the hood with the index mark on the lens barrel. Rotate the hood clockwise until it clicks into a locked position. For storage, align the marks again but mount the hood in reverse to save space.
Compatibility Note: This hood is exclusive to the Sigma 24-35mm F2 DG HSM Art lens. Do not attempt to force it onto other lens diameters as this may damage the locking mechanism. Clean the hood periodically with a soft cloth to prevent dust from migrating onto the lens glass, and inspect the bayonet mount for any debris that might prevent a smooth locking action.
