Does your Fuji 18mm lens hood do this?

[Mark G]

My 18mm lens hood doesn't sit straight on my 18mm lens, I've also fitted the hood to my 35mm and it's the same. My 35mm hood on the other hand is level on both lenses.



Any idea if this is normal or adjustable?

Thanks
Mark

I've got a 35mm and the hood sits square on it.

iirc there are some adjustment screws?

There are 4 screws but it appears they're for assembly, not adjustment. I just took them out and spent the next 10 minutes trying to get them back in! They're so tiny!

No, mine sits nicely. Is there some sort of minute obstruction on the hood bayonet?

Mine's fine too.

Mine sits crooked too? Did you ever solve this?

Has it definitely "clicked" in place?

No, unsolved.

Definitely clicked correctly, my 35mm 1.4 hood was straight on the lens, the 18mm hood was wonky on the 35mm.

Def a hood issue.

There are four tiny screws on the outside of the hood which are threaded into collets. Try loosening them (One full turn should do it.). Push the screws head into the hood to loosen the collets and see if there is any adjustment.
Two of the collets (Seen from inside the hood) are fixed in slots, suggesting room for adjustment...Unfortunately the other two aren't.
