kengai Posted October 2, 2022 Share #1 Â Posted October 2, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have just purchased this lens but it is without the lens hood and front cap. What are the codes, is it possible to find them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 Hi kengai, Take a look here lens hood and front cap for APO-TELYT-R 3.4/180mm. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
a.noctilux Posted October 2, 2022 Share #2 Â Posted October 2, 2022 Wiki page Sliding "long" hood is enough for many situations. Cap is E60 #14290 if your lens is E60 type (later version). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Geschlecht Posted October 3, 2022 Share #3 Â Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) Hello kengai, Welcome to the Forum.. This lens comes in 2 versions. Both have built in lens hoods that you pull forward to use. There is the later version that Arnaud wrote about above which takes E60 filters. And an earlier E59 retaining ring version which uses Series 7.5 filters. Both varieties may have different configurations of CAMS. Different cam configurations allow the lenses to be used with different Leitz/Leica reflex cameras. In the WIKI that Arnaud was nice enough to provide there is a section that explains the cam configurations. Cam configuration is not an issue if you are using the lens on other cameras. After you "click" the site that Arnaud provided: "Click" "Main page" to the top left & then "Leica Lenses & Camera Accessories" & then "R Mount" Best Regards, Michael Edited October 3, 2022 by Michael Geschlecht Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
