Hmp....checked the xe1 specs...it stated that remote control rr-80 by fuji is optional and usable.....and xe1 seems to use the sqmeusb connector as xpro1 usb2.0 ......anyone think that rr-80 can actually work on xpro1 or we need to wait for another firmware to enable it a xpro1 after launch of xe1

Hi guys.

Any idea where I can get the replacement hood for the 35mm lens.. 3rd party or original is fine.

Cant seem to find it on ebay.

You want to buy that twist-type rectangle hood? I find that easy to come off.

Why not try screw-on ones. Such as this below:

I am using a vented metal hood. Works just fine. $7.89 USD. Sorry for the crappy phone pic.

Got mine here:

Oops sorry I didn't see this reply. :/

Actually, the rectangular twist on/off lens hoods that came with the XF lenses are most effective is cutting out stray unwanted light and flare. But if you have other considerations, then other hoods may be more suitable.

I hv always shot the XF lenses with the original rectangular hoods. Pretty happy with them.

i like the original hood too..

think my initial post was misleading..

what i meant was original Fuji or OEM made rectangular hood..
cause i do not use filters..

any case..
thanks again to the bros who gave me the alternatives..
