Spare 21mm elmarit M hood anyone?

I can't seem to find one and my dealer tells me almost two months after I ordered one that Leica doesn't supply them anymore, so my hopes are on you, fellow Leica Forum Members: does anyone have a spare lens hood for the elmarit-m 21mm pre ASPH E60?

Please PM or mail me. I'm sure we can settle on a price.

Or does anyone know what other hood i could use?

 

Thanks a lot

I do not have one but a comment nonetheless (from my own experience): for the pre-ASPH E60 model there were actually two different kinds of hood mounts made. Yes, both are E60. With the first one the lens will have two pins sticking out whereas the second incarnation will need a hood with two clips which you press to mount the hood.

 

So, if you are looking for a hood you first need to figure out which version of lens you have.

 

I think I have seen a used clip-on hood in a store here in Hong Kong for HK$500.

This might be the one ...... depending on the serialnr of your lens ... not exactly cheap however!

Yes, the left one on CollectCamera is the right one. Still I wonder what you are going to use the thing for. It is as close to totally ineffective that a lens hood can be. I never use it.

Just ordered it. Should have it by wednesday.

 

Lars, i keep my lenses front down in my bag. I hate removing lenscaps and putting them back on. With a lenshood attached the frontlens (or the IR filter) keeps from getting scratched.

 

Thanks for your help guys!
