I have seen where the FIKUS shade- the one that adjusts, is tourted not only for the 50-135mm Elmars- or more correctly, the 5 to 13.5cm Elmars, et al, but I have heard of it touted as usable on the 35mm (3.5cm) Summaron.... The 5cm mark is not the closest the outer hood with set- the 5cm mark is about a cm from the litmit of it's movement, and looks like if it was pushed all the way back that it would work great onthe Summaron- and it would mean that I could carry just one shade with my LTM kit! Anyone with first hand experience! I just got it, and even though I like the VALOO on the 5cm Elmar- because of the ease of changing aperture, the FIKUS is a great solution for the 90 Elmar, and 13.5cm Hektor. Thanks for any thoughts on this! Dan ( Who just loves all the neat old clamp-on stuff....Honey! I'M HOME!) Post
