Nikon 18-55mm D40 kit lens

Just a quick question ...

Did the kit lens for the D40 come complete with a lens hood ?

Just looking on flea bay and can't seem to find an official nikon hood for it.

I had a 52mm petal hood that I put on it but unlike the proper hood it won't let you put the lens cap on - its either lens cap or lens hood

Almost certain that they didn't, as standard.

No the kit lens does not have a hood nor any obvious way of fixing, such as the 55-200 and 70-300 have.

Hope this helps :shrug:

Thanks. I didn't think it did.

The after market ones just screw on the front as a filter would.

Thanks all
