I came across a K105mm this past week and I decided I need a hood. Which hood (besides the original which I cannot find) is what I'm asking for. Based on your experiences with this focal length what should I do? I'm tempted to buy a step up ring and just purchase a Takumar 105 hood.

so... as near as I can tell you need a ph-r52 lens hood (original oem hood)
VG Asahi Pentax 52mm Standard Lens Hood FOR 50mm F 1 2 F 1 4 55mm F 1 8 J38 | eBay
is the correct item I believe - the same hood was used for the K50 f1.2 as the K105 f2.8

sorry it's rather pricey....

I am using the Nikon HS-4 hood for this lens. It is a little bit longer and works better than the original one which I also have. Easier to find too.
Cheers Robert
