I have always left the lens hoods on all my lenses while shooting indoors and out, but recently when I attended a "shootout" at a modeling show I noticed almost all of the photogs removed their lens hoods. Is there a reason for this? When should I remove my lens hood and when should I keep it on the lens while shooting? I would imagine there was a "reason" most of the photographers removed their hoods. Can anyone explain?
I bet it's because they don't want or need another two or three inches sticking out in front. They control their lights, so they're not afraid of light striking the lens at the wrong angle.
