He can provide the Leica-blessed B+W 67EW filters for this lens. Just be sure to be sitting when you hear the price of the circular polarizer - B+W produces only the Kaesemann in this size. As for the hood, the Leica part number is 12540, and it looks suspiciously like the extra wide filter holder offered by B+W. The B+W item would fit a 67mm filter threading and hold a 74 mm unmounted glass filter. The holder and any accompanying unmounted filters are special order items. If you do go the B+W route, I suggest that you get in touch with the appropriate distributor (http://www.schneideroptics.com in the US) for ordering information. Their reps have been responsive and helpful with both the pre- and post-order questions.
