28mm Elmarit-R Series 1,

Recommended Posts

According to the Leica Pocket Book 8th Edition the 28mm Elmarit-R has a Series 7 filter thread but I just checked mine and found that not to be so … none of my Series VII (Series 7) accessories fit the lens e.g. Series VII Elpro. The bayonet hood I have is the 12509 which has VII stamped on it … but maybe that refers to 'drop in' filters secured by the hood?

 

The actual front filter thread of the Mk I 28mm R lens is 48mm so if you can source a 48mm wide angle hood it should fit. Alternatively, use a 48mm to 49mm stepping ring 48mm to 49mm Step Rings | Step Rings | SRB-Photographic.co.uk with a 49mm wide angle hood.

 

And just noticed there are three Leitz 12509 hoods listed on Ebay .. and three listed in a well known 'Leica Shop' in Austria :)

Yes you just need a 12509 hood.
