Nikon HB-39 Lens Hood for 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3G & 16-85mm Lens

Note that this hood is for the f/3.5-6.3 version and NOT the F/3.5-5.6 version of the 18-300mm Nikon lens.

Wide angle lenses are notorious for letting in trash light that you simply don't want on your photo. The lens hood is the buffer you need to stop this happening. If you have lost it then buy a new one here.
