[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have the same lens which was also lacking a lens hood. I had to ask my technician to fabricate a metal hood for me from scratch. It works well, but the down side is that he needs to have the lens to make accurate measurements. This is one option worth considering. Please let me know if I can be of any help.
