Re: Caution: Use the Canon LH-DC110 with the G1X III

There are no little tongues, for want of a better word, on the Mark lll lens barrel for an attachment like there was for the G1X original.

The lens hood is a screw-in exactly like a filter and its apparently aluminium.  So I cannot see why there is any less chance of this getting stuck on the end of a lens than a normal filter. And if some people screw a filter into the adaptor without taking it off the lens, I'd think there is every chance they could apply too much torque in doing so, thus overtightening the lens hood and placing too much stress on that lens. And we all remember Error 99, don't we?
