Lens shade for Zeiss planar 50mm f2 ZM

[Pusiek]

Hi,

Thanks for the comments. I'll try to get mamiya TLR 80mm Sekor lens shade.

Kind regards,

Piotrek

If you want a hood thats almost the same as the zeiss hood, try the voightlander hood for the 35/1.4 nokton.
I used my zeiss hood on both the 50 planar and 35 nokton and it fits great. So other way round should work fine.

Piotrek,
Are you sure you don't want the original one? Have you read my PM?

.... it is considered that CV LH-6 and Zeiss 35/50 hoods can be interchanged, one user experience I have read suggestions that a tight ['Bo' type] hood was a little strained in it's fit on a 50 Planar, hence the suggestion to verify the fit. It may well not be an issue in actual use......

For the record - I now have a lens hood from Bo Lorentzen :

It fits my Zeiss 35mm C-Biogon f2.8 snugly and therefore should fit the 50 Planar mount equally well. I really like the look of the hood on the M8, it looks appropriate and characterful. From my rough, initial tests, the hood provides good shielding for my lens on M8, the 'cut-out works very well with only minimum intrusion into the image frame, and the hood somehow manages to make the camera look more outfitted for serious work. Bo has done an exemplary job in designing the complex shape of the hood.

Hope this helps.

It's not unheard of two have a lens cover more than one focal length.

For the Rolleiflex SL66, one hood covers 80mm to 150mm.

For the Zeiss Ikon Contarex, one hood covered 21mm to 35mm, and another hood covered 50mm to 135mm. Sort of made it nice, because you only have to carry two lens hoods to cover seven focal lengths. 21-25-35-50-60-85-135.

I often use the 50mm hood for a Zeiss Ikon Contax Sonnar for the 135mm Sonnar.
