The bayonet ring on my 65mm hood just cracked. Super-glued it back together only to have it crack again - so I fear it is about done for.
Exact replacements are expensive, if you can find them.
So, what hood(s) have you tried in place of the originals? What has worked or not worked for you?
Thinking about one of the many collapsible thread-in rubber or similar; but then have to check for vinetteing and of course won't be able to see much in the bottom right corner depending on the design.
Primarily curious about the 65mm but expect there may be a day for each lens hood.
Thanks in advance - analogangler.

Do you need a hood for the 150mm?

No, I have that one and fortunately it seems pretty sturdy.
Has anyone successfully used any threaded hoods - like the collapsible rubber models? Particular brand that seems better than the others?

I bought a 43mm hood from this seller and it was legit. Then again, $65 + $6 shipping.

NaChase, I purchased Mamiya 7 hoods from that seller as well for my Mamiya 6. Not cheap, but they were totally new and in perfect shape so I was okay with the expense.
