There are 2 different versions. Here's a hood for one of them hood on ebay

I bought a standard metal screw hood hood I bought
Thanks Alan!
I realized my version is the earlier 52b (bot 52bb), so the first one would not work for me. But I ordered the second one, which lead me to believe you also have the 52b version as the diameter is 49mm (it is 52mm in the 52bb version.)

One thing I would say is these lenses often come without hoods, and the hood is quite expensive to buy separately (approx £20).
Tim, do you know where I could find the hood, I have been looking for it without success.

Thanks Peter, but can you give multiple answers? I would like to have 6 options, with the possibility to choose 2 or 3, not just one.

Anyway .. it's your hobby and if you get that warm fuzzy feeling when you attatch the lens then who are we to say how you spend your cash
Wise words Mike, I fully agree!

To try & save you from your LBA...I recently went on holiday for a few weeks and actually left my "walkabout lens" (DA 17-70) at home - I took the DA 12-24, DA 40mm & DA 55-300 - it worked perfectly. It made me wonder if the search for the perfect walkabout lens is a bit of a waste of time (& money) after all.

Thanks for this comment Simon! You might have saved me from getting yet another lens. I have taken exactly the same approach as you have (only the prime is different) and this thread was making me think.
I am happy again....
