Nikon Patents Unique Dual Lens Hood and 16-35mm Full Frame Lens

Nikon has released some pretty interesting patents in the past. As recently as October of this last year we saw a patent for a camera attachment that blows air into the tripod mount to keep your sensor cool. Just days before that another patent showed that the company might be building features specific to "camera toss" photography into its compact and mirrorless cameras.

Nikon's most recent patent isn't quite as out there, but still unique as far as we can tell -- it's a dual lens hood.
