Lost my lens hood a couple of weeks ago, and despite seaching and posting a phone number it has not been returned. Does anyone know of a suitable 'economic' replacement? I have a rather snug camera case which I was able to use with the original hood on, but with it turned around and locked in position on the increasingly slack bayonet. So when I drew the camera out, lens attached all I had to do was turn the hood around.
Cheers
Andy.

Is it 86mm fit? Could try ebay. This one is up currently but is made of aluminium http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Quality-86mm-...ns_caps_hoods_adaptors_ET&hash=item3a62fbf674

It shouldn't be too hard to get a replacement OEM Sigma hood; the part no. is 737E01

Unfortunately, it looks like Sigma UK doesn't do any direct sales, but searching around the Web for the specific part no. should bring up some results

i`ve got one of these. they`re metal as opposed to plastic, but only half the size of the original sigma item.

Doh! Now I managed to lose mine too! So I need to follow my own advice. The price of a Sigma replacement is £30+ which is outrageous for a bit of plastic.
