Hood for Olympus OM-Zuiko 3.5/21?

[thmk]

Hello,

just waiting for my 3.5/21 (without hood) to arrive I would like to know what hood can be used for it. It seems the original one is quite rare...

Cheers

I have this lens and I bought a 49-67mm step up ring and use it with a 67mm wide angle hood. I got both from the Ebay seller called Heavystar (the best Ebay supplier of generic hoods and rings etc. IMO)

Seems to work fine for me

I believe I have the original Olympus branded hood somewhere. I gotta find it. Funny thing is, I have neither the 3.5 nor the 2.0 versions of this lens!

This is the original one made out of solid metal.

Does anyone know if there was an original metal hood for the 21 f2.0? The one that came with my lens is an original Olympus hood, but is a clamp on hood made of rubber.

I think that's it. I use a 55>86mm step up ring from Contax that seems to work okay.

Thanks for this hint. I already ordered items from heavystar before and was very satisfied. Fast and low shipping costs 🙂
