Lens hood for Hektor 2.8cm f6.3. Leitz product code SOOHN. Retaining screw in chrome. Made by Leitz Germany. Slip-on type for 36mm.
A clean and simple trumpet-shaped design, this classic hood enhances the look of your camera and lens. Beyond its function as a hood, it greatly improves the overall appearance.
There is also a version made by N.Y. Leitz, but the German-made example stands out for its meticulous details, such as the finer finish on the interior.
The crisp white engraving is well balanced, and together with the elegant shape it gives the hood a beautiful presence. Rather scarce.
There is some paint loss on the front edge of the hood and minor scuffing inside, but as a SOOHN it is in rather nice condition. Mounting on the lens has been confirmed.
