Well, what a brilliant piece of advice! Thank you.

My wife travels with an aged suitcase and a roll of Gorilla duct tape to patch up broken seams. With two narrow 3/4" length pieces of tape where the clips were, the zoom's hood is held firmly in place.

Hi, Y'all-
I had this problem with my Olympus 14-54. My solution was a small piece of duct 
tape where the locking clip broke off. It does not replace the clip as such, 
but it provides enough extra friction for the hood that it doesn't turn 
accidentally.


Thanks,
Steve Goss

The original hoods for my 16-55/2.8 zoom, 56/1.2 and 23/1.4 lenses are all in 
need or immediate or imminent replacement.

The locking clips on the inside of the collars have either broken off or are 
dangling by a thread leaving the hoods one step from falling off.
These clips are simply inadequate for purpose beyond a short life span.

I have found a generic rubber screw in 77mm hood for the zoom but it vignettes 
at wider than 23mm. I have yet to locate hoods for the other two lenses.

Has anyone else experienced a similar issue and can point to a source for 
suitable replacements. The original hoods for the zoom and the 23mm are petal 
shaped.
