As others have already mentioned, the hood is very compact and does give adequate shading. I use a leica uv filter along with the hood, and find that I don't get serious vignetting in the corners. I'm including a photo taken with the lens, uv filter, and hood combo, shot wide open. <http://gallery.leica-users.org/colour/03350014_G> ________________________________________________________ > feli2@earthlink.net 2 + 2 = 4 > www.elanphotos.com > > > no archive > > > > From: Feli <feli2@earthlink.net> > To: Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> > Date: Sun, 22 May 2005 19:02:05 -0700 > Subject: Re: [Leica] Hood for collapsible Summicron > > Hey Robert, > > Have you noticed if it causes vignetting, when shooting > wide open? > > feli > > > On May 20, 2005, at 9:29 PM, Robert Browne wrote: > > > Feli, > > > > I use one with my collapsible Summicron. > Size/effectiveness is a trade > > off.
