I spotted an after market lens hood on ebay
Nice form fitting design
Anyone using one of these?
Even if its not really all the useful it looks cool

Yes I am using a 'SAH-BX10F!' as you describe, bought off 'E..y'.
Very nice quality feel about it and a superb screw fit. However you will note it does vignette at certain wide apertures and this could be a serious demerit for some users - this is explained on their advertisement page on the auction site.

I personally do not consider it a serious flaw for my use - you can always remove it - a plus point is that the standard lens cap fits perfectly although again, this will not allow the standard case to close over both hood and cap.

I prefer to use a half case and so again, this is not a demerit for me. All in all I am very pleased with a high precision hood that does come with some drawbacks but then don't they all?
