Leica R 50mm Summicron type II lens hood?

New to forum but have a question. I have acquired this lens for my Canon 60d. Works wonderfully and very happy with results. However, I am concerned about the length of the lens hood.

Has anyone found any problems with glare with the internal hood? Has anyone fitted an alternative hood and if so what type?

Thanks for your attention to this!

Been using the Summicron-R 50/2 for decades and still do with my 5D. One of my favorite 50s ever. Never felt the need to use another hood but i don't use filters.
