Jeff,

Try B&H Photo in New York. 800-947-9941, or www.bhphotovideo.com.

You can get the wide angle lens hood with either one or two filter
slots. The order number for the two parts at B&H are:

1. Wide angle lens hood with two slots, #LELHWAFS2

2. Wide angel lens hood with one slot, #LELHWAFS

You will also need a lens adaptor ring that has the same thread as
the filter thread of your lens. Lee as two kinds of adaptor rings,
regular and for wide-angle lenses. If you are going to use this hood
with the 305 G-Claron I suggest you go with the wide-angle hood.

I actually got rid of all my glass filters and bought adaptor rings
for all the lenses I own and use 100mm square resin or gelatin
filters in the filter slot of the lens hood.

Sandy
