80mm C T* lens Hood

[clark_roberts]

<p>Hi all,<br>

I've just received a 80mm C T* lens and I need a hood for it, but going thru ebay <br>

and it's hard to figure out which would fit. I would like a plastic on a hasselblad made <br>

one for sure, any advice would be helpful.</p>

<p>For a C lens it should be Bayonet=Bay50. For later models , it should be Bay60. Bay6 for Rollei is a completely different size of attachment.</p>

Hello Clark.

 

Floyd is correct - you are looking for a Bay50 lens hood. I am assuming here that you are talking about a Hasselblad /

Zeiss lens ?

 

For reference, the following page is an excellent place to get information on the Hasselblad / Zeiss lenses ...

 

http://www.hasselbladhistorical.eu/HW/HWLds.aspx

 

The filter size is one of the pieces of information given on each of the data sheets.

 

I have a number of Fotodiox lens hoods (plastic) for my Hasselblad V-series lenses, and could throughly recommend

them for their quality and value-for-money. The Amazon link is for the specific lens hood for the 80mm C T* Hasselblad /

Zeiss lens ...

Good luck with the new lens.

<p>Thanks guy's, the lens is going back to KEH tomorrow. I took a few picture's and on a bright <br /> sunny day when taking pictures of objects with white in them, they had a bit of strange glow. <br />So I took a flashlight and found a finger print smear on one of the rear element's inside and a strange <br /> ring type film or fog, I never saw that before in a lens, so back it goes.</p>
