I don't have a hood, but you may want to hold the lens up to a white light to see if there's a yellow cast to the elements. The 35/2 Tak is one of the lenses that may have been built with the radioactive elements . If so, it would be subject to yellowing. No problem shooting digital. It's only a drawback when shooting film. (I have a yellowed 35/2, hence my knowledge of this.) Paul
