Well, 2 actually.
I am trying to find a hood that fits both an Industar-50 collapsible (would any hood made for the Emars work?) as well as a hood for the rigid Industar-50.
I am new at this. Thanks for any help.

I just realized I posted this in the wrong forum. Is there a way to have it moved?

Captain Mike,
A hood for the collapsible Industar shouldn't be too tough but might be a bit pricey; as you ask, the hoods/filters for the Elmar do fit. "A36" (sometimes written "a36") clamp on or slip on size.
The rigid I-50 hoods/filters are much harder to find; this lens has a 33mm thread. I got very fortunate and mine came with a hood. Still haven't sorted out any filters yet.
You might try this ebay seller:

I've dealt with him a few times for stuff like this and like the service and products he has.
Good hunting!

OK, I just tried this and it works, sort of. I can use my a36 E. Leitz clamp on filters on my Rigid I-50. But, I can't see the aperture settings while the filter is on the lens. With the Bessa R that might not be a problem for you--and most of the time it won't be for me--depending on how or if you want to manage depth of field.

I've had a few 32mm push-on filters and hoods/shades for years,- and think they are widely available still, so this was my solution.......I might be persuaded to machine a couple more, (or different size!) if anyone is having problems
Cheers, Dave.

Thank you very much for the help. I was able to find a 33mm push fit hood.

I guess it's better that you seek a hood for a Russian lens than a lens for a Russian hood....

Rob, Thanks for this valuable information. I just recently asked Fedka this very question, and he tried but wasn't sure. But now I see several 33mm hoods, and filters now available on ebay. Regards, -Dan

The hood for the collapsible is any 36.0mm hood available from fedka or heavystars on ebay. The one for the rigid is more of a problem. I had a nice, aluminum adapter made for the latter by S.K. Grimes to fit the common size 49.0mm filters/ hoods.

Why not use a stepping ring? I found a seller on ebay selling any size to any size stepping rings - so I bought a couple to step up to 52 mm - the size of my Nikkor lenses - so now all my hoods and filters are compatible with my FSU lenses. Only small snag - they partially obscure the viewfinder, but it is liveable with, for me at least.

Here is what I found for my 50mm f3.5 Black Rigid:

I-26 takes 40.5mm accessories. And looks better, too. But you can always get a 33mm to 40.5mm adapter, and then get a nice vented hood so it doesn't block the viewfinder so much.

Push on russian lens hood
Push on russian lens hood
I got a Russian push on lens hood for the 50mm f3.5's It's just a a36 size, the Russian one is made out of some type of hard rubber. You still have to remove the hood to set the f stop. It is a friction fit on the outside ring of the lens. BTW it also fit's my FED 100 mm f6.3 it is longer then the standard hood for the Leica Elmar, it seems that it would be too long but works fine.
They also make a a37 slip on hood for the rigid 50mm f 3.5 lens and I have seen them listed on e-bay, you can usually pick them up for around 6-8 dollars. There was a guy about a month ago selling a small case/box (10) of the a37 hoods for around 22 dollars they were new all still wrapped in paper.
So be careful if you find one of the Russian push on hoods for the 50mm f3.5's since the made both a a36 and a a37.

I found a listing on that web site for a 50mm 3.5 and hood. Now it's the one for the a37 since the lens is a rigid 50. But they look the same. Just search for it.
