hi all
i was wondering how much does the Leica 12538 M2/50 Canada Leitz hood sell for.
i somehow have one in my procession through a trade but would like to sell it
What diameter lens does it fit anyways?

Hi Mark,

this is the plastic push-on E39 hood that came for the first time with the v3 50/2 Summicron. It fits 50/2, 35/2, 35/2.8, etc. just like the earlier 12585[H]. In my experience it's just a tiny bit tighter.

Value is a bit lower than the older metal version, usually. But maybe even more functional, since it doesn't bend/ding ...

Cheers,

Roland.

KEH currently has an EX one for US 35, if this helps. Without the cap, that usually is another US 10-20 or so.
