- Description
- Metal Enteco combination filter holder and lens hood lined with soft black fabric in the original orange cardboard box. The lens hood has a short black plastic handle along the rim that, when twisted, lowers and raises a small knob that locks the hood in place on the lens - a secondary level between the rim and the hood allows for filters to be screwed in. Also in the box is a much smaller filter and frame, as well as a Canon view finder zoom lens attachment. The box has a deep orange lid with a yellow and black label on the lid with “5.75” written in pencil in the top right corner - the lid fits completely over the body of the box.
