Lens hood cap for Summicron-M 50/2?

Hello,

 

I have the latest version of the Summicron-M 50/2 lens. I'd like to leave the lens hood extended at all times. Does anyone know of a slip-over lens cap that would cover the hood? Also, can anyone explain the threads on the inside of the lens hood?

 

Thanks,

Michael

I'm sure you could find a generic lens cap which would fit over the extended lens hood. Check on ebay, there's someone who sells all manner of lens accessories at prices that should embarrass Leica (and I speak as someone who has just paid nearly $200 for a replacement WATE hood).

 

I don't have the 50/2 but if it's like the 50/1.4, those "threads" are just rings to reduce the chance of unwanted reflections.
