Jens, The hood that Pentax makes for this is the MH-RB67 (catalog # cat. 34130), a screw-in hood. It is very expensive if bought new ($55?) It also is difficult to find used; one list member paid $20 for a used one in 1992. The hood is very shallow; think of it primarily as a way to protect your lens and only secondarily as a way to minimize flare.
