I have an 85mm f1.9 and a 135 f3.5 lens. Both of this lenses have a 48mm filter thread. With a 48 to 49mm adapter, Inexpensive Pentax lens hoods can be used. For the 85 mm lens I use a pentax 100/105mm hood. there is no vigneting as far as I can see. For the 135mm lens I use a Pentax 135/150mm hood. I just found a 135mm hood at Thomson Photo for sale .Have a look at: http://www.thompsonphoto.com/usd/pentax.html there is the following line under Pentax used equipment: 902804 PENTAX HOOD 49 135/150/200 8/9 $7.00 I hope this will help someone.
