Subject: Re: [Leica] Hood and cap for 35mm Summilux ?
From: John Collier <jbcollier@shaw.ca>

The 21/3.4 SA has been out of production for twenty three years. It 
also would not fit the 21/4 SA nor the first version of the 28/2.8 
which have been out of production for forty and thirty one years 
respectively. I am siding with Kit on this one. After twenty three 
years, we can safely say there is a single standard rear cap.
