What is the period-correct sunshade for the Elmar 3,5/3,5 cm ?  

I have a nice 3,5/3,5 cm uncoated copy as a loan for a couple of days and I think it will benefit from a shade. 

I presume the FISON wouldl vignette?  Sorry to ask, but I don't have a digital M any more so I can't test that without the hassle of developing a film.

Thank you for your help.

There are also FOOKH, FLQOO and FB-07 by Flashback Camera Japan:

According to their test shoot there seems to be no vignette with the FB-07:

I don't use a hood with the Elmars, but I imagine changing the aperture with it could be mildly irksome?

Thank you, gaheris. I think I'll run a film through my II(D) with the 3,5 cm Elmar plus FISON and see to what result. .  About changing the aperture with the hood on: no problem, I always use a FISON for my 5cm Elmars.

There are two dedicated Leitz hoods for the Elmar 35/3.5: FLQOO (black) and FOOKH or 12505 (silver). See pics below. The FLQOO is about 5mm taller which can be useful as the lens is not flare free. Better have thin fingers or remove the hoods to change aperture with both. I have no experience with the FISON hood sorry.

Thank you ICT !    Useful information.   After searching a little : the black goes for about 300-500 US$; the silver is much cheaper and easier to find: 120 to 200 €...... Chinese copy of what resembles a short FISON :   35 €

RS Elmar 5cm on Leica M9.  (The edges were trimmed off a bit. Guilty of cheating.  Apology😔)

Dude, I thought I am done with GAS syndrome after I have acquired 3 m bodies and 5 lenses.

Now I am thinking of a Barnack and Elmar. Damn, I hate you guys.

Then get some screw to M adaptors and there are hundreds of different screw lenses you can use on both screw and M bodies.

When I first got my Elmar I was interested in seeing how it handled contrast wide open in different situations. Both shots wide open on digital.
