I do not know the coding for a ring only, and even do not remember if such an item does exist.

The standard hood for the Elmar is the FISON/12510 or the adjustable FIKUS (for 50-90-135 mm). Personally, my Elmar is not so difficult to f/adjust.. never broke a nail...

I agree with Luigi. I have the FIKUS but rarely use it. I don't have problems with flare. Aperture setting is not a problem, and I have never chipped my varnish

Regards,

Bill
