They provide a secure connection between the camera body and the lens, allowing for a wide range of lenses to be used, as well as reducing the risk of damage to the lens. Lens mounts and hoods can also help reduce glare and improve image quality by blocking out unwanted light. They come in a variety of sizes, shapes and materials, so photographers can find the perfect lens mount and hood to suit their needs.
