hood size for collapsible 90?

[back alley]

anyone know the hood/filter size for the leica collapsible 90/4 lens?

i think it's 39mm but have not found the answer for sure yet.

thanks,

It's the 39mm thread size. If you get the clip-on hood, it can be reversed on the lens.

great, thanks victor.
i may get the gandy hood for the collapsible 50, not too sure how it would work/look on a longer lens.
reversable is less interesting to me as i leave the hood on all the time, even in the camera bag.

Heavystar has a copy of the Leica clip-on, but as a screw in and, of course, cheaper than anything Leica: ebay item no. 7562634714. Might as well go for the hood'n'cap combo: 7562635112.
