Anybody know what the best hood for this combo of lens and camera is? I'm having a little flare trouble. I saw that Chamonix were doing shades before but I can't find them any more. Cheers

You can get a shade for another camera and modify it to fit yours. Here are two, one for Cambo and another for Shen Hao.

I usually use the darkslide to block the sun.

I would say the darkslide that you have in your hand (hopefully) while exposing.

Check out the Lee lens shade system. A dark slide is handy but doesn't block light reflecting from other surfaces, and it has a nasty habit of showing up on negatives. You may need to have an adapter sleeve made if your lens doesn't have a threaded filter ring.

That's too bad, they're good shades. I use mine on my view camera lenses and my Hasselblad. It's very useful.
