Several decades ago, collapsible rubber lens hoods were quite popular. They tend to be fairly deep compared to stock hoods. I still use them, every once in awhile, when I need a good screen from the sun. They are usually available on E-Bay.
Thats what i went with rubber hood. also on close inspection the uv filter that came with camera was really dirty and was a pain to clean thats what was causing flare all good now. Thanks
