Ken is correct, the ES-65 is the hood made for the Mk I lens, but the newer one will fit as well. However, the new hood relies on an adapter ring that makes putting it on and take it off much more difficult. I cursed it for years until Julian once pointed out that there were two different versions. If you can find one, I'd get the ES-65.

I suppose that, but if someone could confirm that, The hood for the early 50/1.8 is the ES-65. Now the ES-62 may fit, but I can't answer that one. The 65 is specified one, and the one I have on mine.
