The part number on that shade is 12504. I seem to recall that Leica stated that the part number had changed. It is a metal, vented hood with 1:1.4/35 1:2/35 on one side and Leica Camera GMBH Germany on the other side. Hope that helps.

The matching shade is inscribed "12524 M 2/35" on one side and "Leica GMBH Germany" on the other. I could be wrong, but doubt that Leica sells this shade anymore and am not sure what it sold for when they did (so I'm vulnerable to some shady shade dealings!). John McLeod - -------------------- Hi John., the shade for the Summicron-M 2/35 ASPH will fit the pre-Asph as well. The Leica part number is 12526, list price in Germany is EUR 91. It is the same form as the 12524, the only difference is that the 2 'noses' to hold the cap 14043 are little bit longer on the 12526. So the cap stays more safely on this lens shade.
