Was curious if the 18-55 lens you're demonstrating came factory equiped from sony with the black sunshade or was this something you purchased separately, and if so where? Thanks

@CatalinaChaser First of all, the gear was loaned briefly for evaluation at the launch event (for roughly 24 hours). My understanding is that the the lens hood is included with the lens in the box.

@brendameistar This video was made at the launch of the NEX system, months before Sony updated the ui via a firmware update.
