I often have problems when I take pictures with my Jupiter-8 (and also Jupiter-26) in bright sunlight. And I wonder why there are no lenshoods for these lenses. I´ve never seen lenshoods for Jupiter-lenses. Are there really no russian lenshoods - made for Jupiter-lenses? What do you use? Is there a shop where I can buy lenshood that fits on my Jupiter-8? (a shop in germany wood be good).
I found some years ago a seller on eBay offering lens hoods for such lenses. He offered a set of ten hoods in an original russian box. The hoods are made from plastic and the shipping fees were higher than the value of the hoods.
Jupiter-8 has a 40.5mm filter thread and there are many lens hoods available - from plastic push-on and folding rubber hoods. There are 4 or 5 models available in my store (fedka.com), and there are plenty of them on eBay and probably in other on-line stores. Just look for 40.5mm lens hood.
What is really hard to find is a lens hood for Industar-22/-50.
