Voigtlander 35mm f1.4 hood option ?

[stickdude]

Hi all,

I got delivery of a very nice Voigtlander 35mm 1.4 (SC) today for my M6 without the hood and noticed that the lens hood from my Carl Zeiss 50mm f2 fits it perfectly as they're both 43mm threads as such.

Thing is I was wondering if anyone would know if using this hood will cause any vignetting ? Its a long shot question I know 🙂

By the way, with the 35mm lens came some paperwork with what appears
to be a 1-1 scale drawing of the lens and the LH-6. The LH-6 appears to
be exactly the same size and shape as the hood from the 50mm.

Anyhow, any thoughts would be useful and much appreciated.

Thanks
Mark

Yes, I've heard they are interchangable.

Hi Mark it's effectively the same hood as the Voigtlander LH-6 and can be used with the Zeiss 35mm Biogon and also the 50mm Planar. So save your money an use the hood with both of your lenses 🙂
