Step 2Observe the edges
Take a look at the edge of the PVC. On the small end, it has a slight interior bevel. I'm going to sand it down a bit so there is no bevel. This way the hood will sit more snugly against the ring around the lens of the camera.
On the other hand--on the other (larger) end--there is not enough of a bevel for the Lumix: when I first mounted it, there was slight vignetting (the hood was just the slightest bit too small in diameter at the edge). I solved this by grinding / sanding away the inside edge of the large opening of the hood ... that did the trick, eliminating the vignetting.
The next couple steps show the sanding operations.
