Kriehuber Posted September 15, 2021 Share #2 Posted September 15, 2021 Whats the problem with the Hood delivered with the Lens? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiorgioNuvolari Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted September 15, 2021 The hood delivered with the lens is too bulky, I am trying to have the lens/camera combo more portable. Many thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtai Posted September 15, 2021 Share #4 Posted September 15, 2021 There’s an aftermarket hood from Thorsten von Overgaard. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks for your help, GN I have no idea if that Q hood fits the M lens. But if it fits then just try. If you see some vignetting then its not ideal. If you see no vignetting and you like the mixed combo then I think that its perfect match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darylgo Posted September 16, 2021 Share #6 Posted September 16, 2021 The Q hood has a 60mm thread, the 28mm Summilux a 54mm thread. The alternatives to the 28 hood are almost zero, the 24mm Summilux hood is the same thread but different enough to make it unworkable. Series 7 corresponds to 54mm but that leads to a dead end. The Leica hood is about as good as it gets for size, flare and viewfinder blockage. The filter thread is 49mm on the 28mm Summilux, one of the cheap eBay hoods might reduce size.

a.noctilux Posted September 16, 2021 Share #7 Posted September 16, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Screw-in vented cheap hood may work, like one of these '49mm' hood I use in different diameters on many lenses. Some may need to be worked on ... like if vignetting a bit, I'd file the four corners or if not right orientaion of "see-thrue" put a paper ring, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yarosuav Posted September 16, 2021 Share #8 Posted September 16, 2021 Try the Overgaard hood. I have a few (but not on my 28mm Lux) and they work well. Not sure if it’s going to be any less bulky though… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobert Posted September 17, 2021 Share #9 Posted September 17, 2021 Isn’t there a cheap rubber hood on the market? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gelatino Posted September 17, 2021 Share #10 Posted September 17, 2021 So many times said here and elsewhere, that the hood is not only for lateral light control but for protection against shocks and limit access of dirt ( water, sand, fingers ...) to the front lens.

Yarosuav Posted September 17, 2021 Share #11 Posted September 17, 2021 I actually love the hood that comes with the 28mm Lux - it’s extremely well made and relatively compact - does not make the lens much bigger and does offer excellent protection against bumps… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdg1371 Posted September 17, 2021 Share #12 Posted September 17, 2021 The Thorsten hood is bulkier and less streamlined than the OEM. Also note, I ordered one and it went months without shipping, Thorsten’s minions stopped replying, and I had to open a PayPal dispute. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
