Hello, Leica experts. Whats the answer, here?
I have the Elmarit M 28mm pre-asph with 46mm filter threads. Because I use it on a crop cameras (1.3X/1.5X/2X), I have fitted it with, as I remember, a smaller 35M 'lux hood. This solution isn't perfect as the hood cap comes off easily and I've already lost it once. The plastic hood also is not as robust as my 50 Summicron solution, shown here:
This is what I'm trying to recreate on my Elmarit M 28mm. The hood is fitted with the guts of a standard filter and the cap is generic.
Is there a metal lens hood like this for the 46mm size of the Elmarit 28? All I can find is a 43mm version.
Thanks, for any comments.
