        I don't believe the metal slip-on hood for the 50 1.8, 1.4 and 35 2.8 
will fit the 35-105 3.5-4.5 unless you use a step down ring with a 49 mm 
filter. I have both the metal hood for the 50 and a hard rubber slip-on hood 
marked for the 35-105. The 35-105 takes 55 mm filters so the smaller hood won't 
fit. 

Did you mean to reference the 35-70 instead? I had a 35-70 3.5-4.5 for a short 
time (traded it for the 35-105) and I used the 49mm screw on hood for the 28 
2.8., 3.5.

In your message dated: Wed, 11 Mar 1998 10:46:05 EST you write:

I just bought one of these today from Oly America (price $33).  It is
also apparently intended for the 35-105/3.5-4.5.
