All you homies, hoods with bling !



Rear - L-R

Spiratone dual-range extending 58mm on Biotar 75
Ednalite Series VII vented
Unknown make nickel-plated brass 49mm on Pancolar 50

Front - L-R

Spiratone dual-range extending Series VII
Accura wide-angle Series VI
Accura Tele Series VI

Comment - Its a bit odd that the market - well, our friends in Hong Kong at least - have not returned to making decorative lens hoods. These were quite common in the 1950's. I would think that sort of thing would sell very well. Who wants an ugly grey plastic or rubber thing when you can have chrome with racing stripes ?

Old lenses need old hoods! That's a definite "yes"!
