Hi!
I have been following the list for about a year now, and this is my first post, so i�ll introduce myself shortly. I�m 28, i live in Finland. My "main" hobbies are triathlon and photography. I mostly photograph landscapes and macro in nature. My system is built around a KX. I�m also interested in technical part of our hobby, and have overhauled a Spotmatic last winter. It�s a pleasure to use on nice summer days. Yes, i know it could be used anywhere anytime ;) but KX can take care of that too, and i�m more confident in using the KX.
Then to my "problem" which made me write my first post at last:
I have just ordered a K135/2.5 lens, it comes without a hood. Now i�m wondering which hood should i get for it ? The dedicated hood is the plastic one i suppose, as it is with other K-series lenses and has that quick-attachment system. Takumar hood is built of metal and is screwed on.
Could someone please inform me about the dimensions of these two hoods ? Maybe the dimensions should be the deciding factor here...
Regards, Niko.
