The Nikon HB-45 is a genuine bayonet-mount lens hood designed specifically for the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens. It attaches quickly and securely via a bayonet mount, aligning precisely with the lens for reliable, wobble-free use.

The hood helps block stray light from entering the lens, reducing lens flare and ghosting while improving contrast and color accuracy in backlit or harsh lighting conditions. It also provides added physical protection for the front lens element against accidental bumps, fingerprints, and light rain or dust.

Constructed from durable plastic in matte black, the HB-45 can be mounted in reverse (facing backward over the lens barrel) for compact storage and transport when not shooting.
