Dedicated Lens Hood for 25mm

The Olympus America Inc. LH-66B lens hood is engineered specifically for the M.Zuiko Digital ED 25mm and 45mm f/1.2 PRO lenses. It blocks unwanted stray light to reduce flare and ghosting, helping maintain contrast and colour fidelity in challenging conditions. The accessory also acts as a physical barrier, shielding the front element from accidental impacts and scratches during handling or transport.

Upgrade from Shooting Without a Hood

Without a dedicated hood, strong side light easily enters the wide f/1.2 aperture, creating veiling flare that lowers image quality. The LH-66B replaces that vulnerability with a precision fit matched to the optical design of these two primes. Its modified release mechanism prevents accidental detachment, so the hood stays secure when you are working quickly or storing the lens in a bag.

Ideal for Owners of the 25mm

Photographers using either of these M.Zuiko PRO lenses will benefit from the tailored flare control and front-element protection. The hood is not compatible with other focal lengths or lens series, so owners of different M.Zuiko optics should look for the hood designated for their specific model. Buyers needing a hood for zoom lenses or wider primes must select a different accessory.

Questions about this item

Which lenses does the LH-66B hood fit?

It is specifically designed for the M.Zuiko Digital ED 25mm f/1.2 PRO and 45mm f/1.2 PRO lenses.

How do I attach it and what is the common mistake?

Align the hood with the lens barrel and turn until the modified release section clicks; the mistake is stopping before the click, which leaves it loose.

What ongoing care does the hood need?

Wipe the interior and exterior with a clean microfibre cloth to remove dust or fingerprints; no other maintenance is required.
