[Leica] vintage leica lenses meet halloween and birthday bowling

Luis,
Yes, it does.  However, since the 35 Pre-Asph 'Lux has no filter threads, 
you need the 12504 to mount a filter on it.  Not sure why Leica designed it 
without a filter thread.  Seems like a laps of brain function on the 
designer's part.  ;-)  Not sure why they made the hood so it rotates either. 
 Love the lens though, especially on the M8.
