Subject: Re: [Leica] Lens Hood for 50 DR

Any of the clip on models for 50mm should work. Until recently I used the
vented model. Now I use the current hood for the 50 Elmar which allows use
of a normal lens cap and doesn't require reversing the shade for storage.

Mount the lens without the eyes, turn to the nearest focus point, pull the
focus ring forward and turn into the closeup range. THEN mount the "eyes".
