FLQOO lens hood made by Leitz New York. Black paint finish on brass with chrome screw. A36 size.

Dimensions are nearly identical to the German-made FLQOO, but the engraving marking it for the Elmar 50mm is perhaps the most notable difference.

It can also be used with the Elmar 35mm and Summaron 35mm lenses, not just the Elmar 50mm.

Compared to the original German FLQOO, the front rim is thinner, and the sleeve section used to secure the hood to the lens is shorter. The screw diameter is slightly smaller, and the knurling is only chamfered on the outside edge, whereas the German FLQOO features chamfering on both sides.

The more you know and compare, the more fascinating the world of Leitz accessories becomes.

There is slight paint loss on the corner of the hood base, along with some minor bubbling, giving it a nice character. Tested mounted on lenses such as the Elmar.
Comes with the original New York Leitz box.
It is rare to find an FLQOO made by New York Leitz in such clean condition. A scarce item.
