Subject: Re: [Leica] Correct hood for 35mm 'cron, first version?

The hoods for the 50 and 35mm summicrons and 35 summaron were the same.
My 35 'cron with eyes has the original snap on hood. The hood also works on
the 50mm 'cron, and 35 summaron. The later version (12585 with cut-outs) for
the 50mm summicron also works (and is preferable).
