Hi, I have a 11673 lens paired with a 12470 lens hood. I really love the short and lightweight hood on the 11699.

I thought since they are both 35 F2 lenses, maybe they could share the same hood? So I bought a new hood and realized that wasn’t the case.

Fortunately, the hood for the 11699 is larger than the 11673 lens. I’m considering drawing up a 3D model and having a CNC factory make an adapter ring.

The problem is, I can hardly find the thread specifications for the lens hood in any of the Leica manuals.

Does anyone happen to know the thread specifications for this hood?

Let me know if you need further adjustments!
Thank you

I have no idea sorry. I use the litle hood of the Elmar-M 50/2.8 on my Summicron 35/2 asph v2 (right). This way the combo is shorter than the Summicron 35/2 asph v1 with its plastic hood (left).
