Now this is getting interesting !
What type of lens hood do you recommend for the 50 mm ?
or is it a built in ?

The OEM lens hood for the 50/1.8, 50/1.4 and 35/2.8 is the same clamp-on hood.
It can be reversed around the barrel of the lens and clamped down for
storage inside a never-ready case. Although this hood fits a 50/1.2 and
can easily be used (all have 49mm filter rings), it cannot be reversed
around the lens for storage because the 50/1.2 has a wider diameter barrel
around the focus ring. The OEM lens hood for the 50/1.2 is slightly wider
so it will fit reversed around the 50/1.2 for storage. You can use either
hood on any of the three 50mm lenses.
