ProOptic 39mm Rubber Lens Hood

I do a lot of reverse lens macro photography using enlargrer lenses. Of course I end up with an M39 exposed rear or the lens with male threads. There have been many occasions I could have benefited from a lens hood. Unfortunately, a39mm hood with female threads is non-existent, at least for me. So, I orderrd this hood along with a M39 rear lens cap. I removed the end of the rear lens cap, screwed in the hood using some adhesive and whalla, I had a removable hood for the exposed rear of my reversed M39 enlarger lenses. I couldn't be happier and the set up works really well as this hood was specifically designed for this size lens to begin with. I highly recommend this for any others using enlarger lenses and these techniques.
