A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

People shooting with the lens hood on backwards. Take it off or put it on facing the correct way!

I wrote "shooting with the lens hood on backwards" but seems the people replying read it as "never have the lens hood on backwards ever" which is not the same thing.

Storing and walking around? Fine?

Shooting for 10-20 minutes or more with it on backwards? Not a fan.

I'm a regular offender for this - but I'll never stop because it's too handy!

If I take it off, I will lose it… it’s a miracle I haven’t lost it up to this point

So why not put it on and use as intended?

Because you may not need it for every shot and it makes your lens even longer than it already is, making it even easier to catch/ bounce off the nearest obstacle as you pass it. Why does this upset folk so much? 🤣
