I have the normal hood for the 43/1.9 but wondered if there is one available like the more compact hood of the 40/2.8. the more enclosed hood with circular or rectangular opening would help more with flare.

The Tak 55/1.8 is a great lens, maybe not so weird.

I have to jump on the K55 bandwagon too. It's essentially the same lens as the Takumar 55/2 that I had. There was a point where I thought it was actually better than the DA50!

From the old Taks you could also add the 135/3.5 as an example of a weird but wonderful lens. It's built beautifully and has top quality rendering to boot.

That makes three of us. I’ve been tempted to grab a Tak 135/3.5. I’ve heard on numerous occasions that it’s a step up from the M135/3.5 I currently own.

I would add the 35-70 SMC F to the list - super lens and can act as a replacement for a couple of primes at a pinch.

Thank you. Clifton look like they have some other cases that might suite new/older GR models.

That is a huge shop - a shame it is closing down.

Thank you. Have contacted HT for an MX service. Will try Asahi if unsuccessful.
