Hi

I've got the square hood for my 21mm f4 skopar lens and was wondering if there's anyone who knows anyone who could cut a vent in the top left corner so it would be see-trough from the viewfinder on an M. I've seen that a few of the zm lenses have hoods like this.

Thanks,
 
carefully?

I take you aren't using the external viewfinder then? I don't find it too obtrusive as is. Even for critical focus check (not that you have to be too critical with this, given the depth of field).
 
I myself prefer the small round hood that came with the lens. Actually, the LH-1 hood was given free of charge at the purchase. I did not use it since it blocks one quarter of the view!!! And I never like any hood that consumes a lot of space in my camera bag. Bad design it is.
