Csacwp Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share #21  Posted February 7, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) The 12504 hood arrived today... quite beat to hell but then again I only paid $60 for it. It has a silver thumbscrew in the side of it to help clamp it onto the lens. Is this factory original? I don’t see screws in any of the other online ones.

jdlaing Posted February 7, 2018 Share #22 Â Posted February 7, 2018 Sounds like an aftermarket hood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted February 7, 2018 Share #23  Posted February 7, 2018 Never seen a thumbscrew so far. Only two silver clamps.  Welcome, dear visitor!

Csacwp Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share #24  Posted February 7, 2018 It's an original one, but I think somebody added the screw to get it to hold onto their lens more tightly. I'll return it as B&H likely didn't realize the screw wasn't original.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCPix Posted February 8, 2018 Share #26 Â Posted February 8, 2018 I was a photojournalist in Johannesburg in the 80's - I used two M2's, one with a 35, the other with a 90. You've made a good decision. The ratio of shots taken was around 80% on the 35 and 20% on the 90. Enjoy your visit... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
