Lens Shade or Hood

[sqjaw]

I have been going thru ebay and other palces to find a Lens Hood for my Summarit 50mm F-1.5 , First of all a 40.5mm will not stay on my metric ruler says 41mm should fit , Now the only thing that gives many clue is Leitz lens shade Number E41 but can locate at this time one of those Rectangle shades work on this lens ? Thanks for all any answers : :bang:

There is a chance that some of the aftermarket 40.5mm screw in ones will work, as is. I had one, but I forgot who the seller was, but I don't think it was Heavystar.

In any case, you can try the Heavystar one, I like these: 360210807680 which kind of copy the M-Hexanon 28 original style.

I have one in E39 (not from Heavystar) for my '50s collapsible cron, and it fits and looks great, with no vignetting.

I got a generic screw in hood from Camera Quest with hood (41 mm) cap as well. Does not vignette.

Try a layer or sticky tape on the threads of the 40.5 hood.
