There is a nice square metal hood made to fit the lens. Very easy to find for 5$. It can be reversed on the lens, as such, and will fit in the spotmatic case if I remember well.[http://www.7t7lab.de/franz/takumar.jpg]It is a M42 mount and an exceptional lens.Thanks for the prompt reply, good to hear that! So I guess $19 isn't a bad price for this lens then.. I'll probably try and get it tomorrow. Thanks again, franz.
