24-85 and built in flash

Will the Canon EF24-85 zoom with and without hood obstruct the built in flash of either EOS300 (Rebel2000) or EOS5 (A2E)? Thanks Wen-Wei

With hood below 50mm, yes, blocks at the bottom of the picture with internal flash. Without hood,no but making sure set the lens above 28mm to avoid corner shadow.

Above 50mm, yes -- definately lens shadowing with or without hood when using the built in flash.
