This is the clip-on lens hood for the next-to-latest version of the 2/50 Summicron -- same optical formula, but without the inbuilt lens hood, Leica 11819. The hood is a cheap and junky affair which even I, who forgive Leica most errors, found absolutely abyssmal. What they were thinking of to market this escapes me -- why, even Nikon or Canon would be embarrassed to sell something so cheap!
