p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Alternative Shade For 40/1.4 Voigtlander?


I'm looking for an alternative to the Voigtlander shade for this lens, not due to cost, but rather due to the inability to have it reversed for storage.
So I'd like to know if anyone has found a bayonet mount or screw mount reversible shade for this lens. Don't want a rubber hood.

I have thought about buying two Voigtlander shades and removing the bayonet mount from one and installing it on the opposite side of the other so that I can reverse mount it - has anyone done that?

A screw-in vented or solid hood would be great if it could also be reverse mounted - i.e., has 43mm threads on both sides - has anyone run into one of those? If not one in 43mm threads, I can use a step-up ring to something more common thread-size wise as long as it doesn't get too large.

Thanks!

BTW - this will be used on my A7RII

I'm using the Canon EW-43 on my 35 ZM C-bigon which is also 43mm threads. Works beautifully and only adds a few mm of thickness to the lens.
