Summary: Superb Metal Lens Shade for Zeiss Ikon ZM 35mm Biogon and 50mm Planar lenses
Comment: I've had the opportunity of using this lens shade a few times with 35mm Biogon and 50mm Planar lenses I had borrowed from Zeiss USA last this fall; it is now part of my "standard" M-mount rangefinder equipment, since it's attached to a new Zeiss Ikon ZM 35mm f2 Biogon lens that I own now (It will also be useful to those thinking of acquiring the new 35mm f2.8 Biogon lens that will be available by early summer.). It's a well-built, metal "vented" lens hood that easily mounts onto either lens via the lens' front bayonet mount. Historically, it reminds me of similar vented lens hoods which Leica had made for its 35mm and 50mm lenses from the mid 1960s through 1990s; in all these instances these are "vented" lens hoods to allow users to see through the rangefinders of their cameras. I can enthusiastically recommend this lens hood to any Zeiss Ikon user.
