Replacement lens hood?

Recommended Posts

Many 23mm owners prefer not to use the standard petal hood which comes with the lens because of its size.

 

Several “ reviewers” on line have opted for a screw-in cylindrical hood  with a 62mm diameter and a depth of only 2 or 3cm. 

 

Although it might be argued that when shooting with the sun right in front of you this wouldn’t protect as much as the standard hood, I think this is a very suitable solution making your lens more compact.

 

There are previous threads on hood replacements even on this forum and on other sources. This video (not mine), talks specifically of this situation
