I have a Summicron 35 v.4 with the square hood and a Summicron 50 v.5. Do you folks use a hood cap for these lenses?
The 50 has a reversible hood and a lens cap, but I find that attaching and reattaching the hood may damage the paint. A hood cap would be an easier way of protecting the lens from dust.
Does anyone have the Leica part numbers for these hood caps?
The 35 hood part number is 12524 and the 50 hood is 12538.
Also, if anyone knows of any 3rd party alternatives, please let me know, as I imagine the Leica parts are expensive and easily lost.
