Whilst browsing on't'internet I have come across the following:

JJC Replacement Pentax PH-RBA 52MM lens hood. Compatible with Pentax SMC P-DA 18-55MM. The lens hood will only work on the lens or lenses shown.

So the blurb specifies DA 18-55 and my lens is 18-55 DAL, will it work?
Is it bayonet or screw fitting?

The JJC IS £9.99

From results so far I definately need a lens hood that works at the wide angle end as with the sun just out of shot I have sometimes got a purple flare in the shot.

Regards,

Steve.
