Nice ones! With shade looks a monster Wink

Very nice. How big is the front diameter? I just bought the vivitar 20mm which requires an 82mm shade. But a good shade does not usually come cheap.

Thanks, guys, I think the diameter is either 72mm or 77mm, will have
to check, big, anyway. I got the hood for something like $8 if I remember,
not bad at all. I like that it just pushes on rather than having to screw
one in.

Thanks, Orio, it's my fave out of these, too. I'll be taking more pictures
of the Town Centre when they fill the canals again (treating for algae) and
hope to catch the gondolas at night when they are operating again. Looks
like little Venice! Laughing

Jules, agree, need to use this lens more! Wink

Good pix and good scans Bill. Cool

How's my cheapskate FlekHood idea doing in practice? Laughing

@ the moleman342:

The Flek 4/20 has a 77mm filter thread and usually comes with an 80mm push on front cap - since the Mamiya RB67 50/65mm WA hood is 80mm push on, it's a good fit.

Bob, thanks for stopping by and filling in the thread info. The hood works
great! Thanks for the heads-up about the KEH sale. Wink
