Well, Lew, how much is it new? I generally buy new Leica parts when I am missing something though I am not certain that these hoods are still available. You have several options. First, check the Usual Suspects -- Midwest, Brooklyn Camera Exchange, Woodmere, PacRim, Rits (the one in Arizona) and the like, as well as eBay. Your lens might take 41mm filter threads -- not all 1.4/35 Summilux lenses did so, so you might want to check this -- and if it does, I'd opt for the purchase of a Series V or VI 41mm filter adapter and hood from Harrison & Harrison in California. Great guys, quality merchandise, and rather inexpensive -- I suspect that these would cost you $35 or less. Marc msmall@aya.yale.edu Cha robh b?s fir gun ghr?s fir!
