Lens hood for Canon f/0.95 on R-D1?

[johnastovall]

What are you f/0.95 owners using for a lens hood? I just saw an OEM Canon hood go for almost 400 dollars on eBay. So, I'm looking for a cheaper option.

The 72mm hoods I find such as this one seem to be for wides and don't appear deep enough for 50mm's.

Any suggestions?

I have a Canon 50/1.2 which caused me similar problems. The guy that sold me the lens offered me a hood for £200!

I opted for a 99p plastic hood on ebay which seems to be very similar in dimension to the official canon hood. It has a metal collar with a tightening screw and though its not the prettiest it does the job.

I may have found the solution for a metal screw in hood. This B+W looks like it might work. I'm trying to get some details on the FOV it covers.

I bought a 72mm rubber lens hood and took the rubber part off, leaving only the metal mounting ring. It isn't very deep, but provides some protection and doesn't block the viewfinder any more than the lens alone.

I have a 50/1.2 with canon hood and the problem is that it partially cover not only part of the viewfinder window but also the rangefinder one (the little rectangle one) so focusing is a bit challenging... but still possible.
