I have the latest pre-ASPH 35/2 and wonder whether the new lens hood cap will fit over my lens hood. Leica USA does not know because they do not have any of the old lenses and hoods in stock to try it on. > I to have the latest pre-asph 35/2 and noticed the following a couple of days ago. On Leica´s WEB site they have some more detailed documents on some of the newer lenses. In the description of the 35/2 asph it says that the hood is slightly redesigned to take the rubber cap, but it also says that the latest pre-asph can take the new hood, and that the hood is delivered with the cap. So I guess it is possible to get the benefit of the rubber cap but at the price of the new hood. /Anders Nygren
