Good morning.
I would like to ask which are the suitable hoods for some manual lenses.
Specifically, i am looking for the following lenses:

Carl Zeiss Jena Pancolar 1,8/50 MC > 49mm filter diameter

Yashica Auto Yashinon-DX 50mm f/1.7 > 52mm filter diameter

Auto Yashinon 5cm f/2 50mm > 52mm filter diameter

Fujinon EBC 50 f1.4 > 49mm filter diameter

Revuenon 55mm F1.2 MC > 58mm filter diameter

I am using them on Pentax K-1 and Fuji XT-1

Thank you in advance

Simple. The longest possible hood that doesn't cause vignetting.

The first one probably won't be long enough for many lenses. Personally I prefer adjustable rubber hoods. They don't look very nice but are more convenient.
