Solution
Lens Hood [LH- DC60] (sold separately) can be used with the camera.

Lens Hood [LH-DC60] Prevents extraneous light outside the angle of view from entering the lens and causing flares or ghosting, which reduce image quality. |
For wide-angle shots of backlit subjects without using the flash, attach optional Lens Hood [LH-DC60] to prevent light outside the angle of view from entering the lens.
