Stein K S Posted April 20, 2013 Share #1 Â Posted April 20, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Think I read once about an alternative baseplate (?) for the M9 to keep the Lux 35 asph pre-FLE and the 12466 combo from hitting the table. Anyone having details about this baseplate... what, where, how much etc... Â Stein Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UliWer Posted April 20, 2013 Share #3 Â Posted April 20, 2013 Well, with the 12466-hood the camera stands exactly on its baseplate with the hood stabilising it in this position. Most other hoods let the camera nod down, some very large ones let it look upwards. To change the baseplate in order that the combination of camera, lens and hood looses its very quality, doesn't make any sens for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just nice to know before potentially paying the 350,- euro plus for this hood. THANKS! Â Stein Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I just wanted to make a very small comment. I quite coinsidentally got hold of the 12466 and I am happy about it... Is now used on both the Lux 35 pre-FLE and the 28 Cron. However, the hood do hit the surface before the entire baseplate rest on the surface. But then again, my " fear" that this over time will contribute to the lens starting to "rattle" is probably rather exaggerated.

IWC Doppel Posted May 14, 2015 Share #6 Â Posted May 14, 2015 I use the 12466 hood with my 28mm Summicron, I have put a 5mm x 10mm strip of sticky backed black velour on the bottom lip to avoid scratching. I also use this on the base plate to help here as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
