Leica LTM Hood for 35 Elmar

[tom_f77]

Hi all.

Can anyone advise on a shade for a 1939 35 Elmar?

Casting around I can see that there's an IROOA for 35/3.5 and others, but I'm not sure if this refers to some later 35/3.5... There certainly seem to be two versions of the ITOOY 50mm version so I'm not sure about the 35 either...

Recommendations for other useable hoods received gratefully as well.

Thanks,

Tom

I bought a shade called FIKUS for it, it's made by leitz and not too expensive. it has one advantage: you can change the lengths so that you can use it as well for the 50 and 90 mm elmar.

Fikus is it

Hello:

As aready pointed out, the Fikus works with the Elmar in the unextended position.

Best of light.

Thanks chaps. Thanks to the FIKUS lead I am now also aware of the FLQOO, the FISON and the FOOKH. This is obviously going to be fun...

Any more?!

Thanks again. I've bought a scabby looking FIKUS, a fairly scabby looking ITOOY, and an A36 push on UV filter. I think with these and a bit of hacking I should be able to sort out something for both 5 and 3.5cm Elmars.
