One aspect which went unanswered here is " when should one be using the hood"
1) Does it makes sense to use it during the Golden Hour ?
2) Should a Hood be used when the sun is directly overhead or at a 90 degree angle ?
3) Should a hood be used with a CPF filter ?
4) Is there any particular position the petals of the hood should be kept in since we have two large and two small petals ?
