Beefi Posted June 26, 2016 Share #1 Posted June 26, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I am looking for a metal lens hood/shade for my X. Firstly to protect the front element when in use but also the added comfort/stability in the hand when using. Is there any product that uses the outer thread - protected by the removable lens ring? I have an oriental (eBay) metal hood that screws on to the filter thread bit it looks a bit ugly! Your help and advice much appreciated.

Beefi Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share #3 Posted June 26, 2016 Many thanks. That looks a bit better and more in keeping with the look/design of the camera. Does it use the filter thread or the outer larger thread for mounting? Looks like I will have to find one now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
