Hama and Hoya lens hood

[skyrocketfw]

Is there any different between Hama and Hoya multi lens hood? B&H states that Hama is for 24mm-210mm and Hoya is for 35mm-200mm. Does this mean Hama is deeper? Do both of them accept lens cap?

I found that two set up are often recommended.

1. fz20 -> Phayee adapter (1st part) -> 62mm filter -> Phayee adapter (2nd part) -> 72mm hood
2. fz20 -> Phayee adapter (1st part) -> 62mm filter -> 62mm hood

Does one setting have more potential for vignetting and flare than another, or they works equally well?

Thanks.

Hama vs. Hoya

The Hoya hood, for some unknown reason does not accept lens caps. [No hood side threads] Is the Hama deeper I do not know but I can give you the outside measurement of the Hoya and the Hama copy Hoya outside measurement is from end to end is 51.5mm with a 90mm front OD. The eBay Hama hood copy is 54mm with an OD of 90mm.



Phayee configurations:



You have the order correct, but the Phayee hood is too shallow. The Hama style hood is the best solution. Make sure it is a three stage multi-lens model and not he 3 stages WA model. This is a link to an Ebay site that sells a duplicate of the Hama in 62mm. His other sized Hama hoods are copies of the wide angle but this one is exact. None of your configuration vignette. the Phayee hood is too darn shallow to vignette it supports 35mm to about 180mm. It does makes a nice napkin. The other tulip offering are sweet to look at but are also too shallow. So is the Panasonic tulip.

The 3 different hood positions in of the 55, 58 and 62 72mm avoid vignetting at different zooms.

This is the setup I use. My hood is a Hama 72mm which accepts a 72mm cap but it MUST be center operated and not the usual one with two bumps on the outside diameter.

2. fz20 -> Phayee adapter (1st part) -> 62mm filter -> 62mm hood

Cannot help you with the vignetting problem. Hama 72mm does not vignette.

Thanks for the ebay link.

The description on the ebay page said that the hood has similar design to the hama hood. Did you buy that hood before? Do you know what is the different between it and the hama? Does it accept lens cap?

Thanks.
