They have a good range of aftermarket and genuine hoods. You may find a slim cylindrical hood that will help. I've bought from them several times, always fast, helpful and reasonable.

My hood for my 105mm Nikkor (the original hood) blocks about 25% of my composition area within the 90mm framelines at close focus and perhaps 10% at infinity. Since the whole barrel spins as well as the hood I'm looking for a fully vented hood to fit my favorite lens. Thanks all.
