105 micro Nikkor lens hood

[boon]

Does anyone know of a suitable replacement lens hood for the Nikon 105 f2.8 micro lens. I have worn out the second standard HB-38 lens hood and need a longer lasting replacement. The plastic ones supplied by Nikon wear out after a couple of years use and just fall off!!

Loads on eBay starting at under a tenner.
I have bought several clones an they have all fitted well.

Cheers Pete, but where you say you’ve bought several does that mean they wear out just like the Nikon one does. I can get Nikon for £14.99 on the net, or £27.99 as quoted by my local stockist. Was kind of hoping someone made one similar style to the 300 2.8 !

Mostly replacements for missing ones, you can’t buy a cheap lens with a hood. I often see people with hoods on backwards who replace their caps between shots and think of harvesting them.
