I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me what the Leica part number is for the hood for the ORIGINAL (version 1) of the 19mm Elmarit-R. I was able to obtain a near-mint copy, but it did not come with the hood.

 

Also can any third-party hood be used?

 

Finally, can B+W or Sunpak thin filters be used on this version of the lens? I am looking to use a UV and a circular polarizer.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Kevin,

 

Information from the Leitz General Catalog (1st July 1977):

 

* The catalog number for the Elmarit-R 19mm lenhood is #12529

 

* The lens takes M82 X 0.75 filters

 

* The lens cap for the Elmarit-R 19mm (A88) is catalog #14221.

 

I really enjoy my version 1, 19mm Elmarit-R.

 

Best of luck with your new lens!

 

Regards,

 

Dan
