Subject: question about/trade for 35/2 lens hood
From: "Charles E. Dunlap" <cdunlap@rupture.ucsc.edu>

I just bought a used 35/2 (Canadian, exc. condition) from B+H while in NY,
but I need a lens hood. I will trade a Russian 35/2, 85/2.8, _or_ a Leica
thread mount to M adaptor for a Leica lens hood in exc. condition. A used
lens hood in exc. condition is probably worth less than the adaptor and
about as much as the 35/2; let me know what you think.

By the way--I'm assuming that there's more or less one style of Leica 35mm
lens hood: the square one that clips into the groove on the front. Knowing
Leica, however, there might be important variations. What are the
significant styles to look for?
