Does anyone have Dimensions(length) or Photo of this hood. I think it's Pentax PH-RA49. Thanks.

I believe its this one link but I'm not 100% sure. If the lens has a 49mm thread then it is the one. They come up fairly regularly on ebay but not with the part number, just 'Pentax (or Asahi) 50 mm hood' or similar. If you get one without a leather case let me know, I think I have a spare one kicking about.

Thanks Ken that's not what I was expecting As far as I could understand, without a picture, the PH-RA49 is round. However I'll keep an eye on eBay for the square one as well.
