Product Overview

Built for the tiny-but-mighty Pentax Q system, the Pentax MH-RA 40.5mm Lens Hood is a compact metal hood that keeps flare and ghosting in check without bulking up your kit. The slim circular profile matches the 01 Standard Prime perfectly, giving you cleaner contrast and better colour in harsh Aussie light while still slipping easily into a pocket or small pouch.

Machined from metal with a ribbed edge and matching front cap, it feels solid, locks on securely and shrugs off everyday knocks. If you’re running a Q body and want a tidy, functional way to protect your front element and sharpen up your images, this hood is a simple, no-fuss upgrade that just works.
