Yes, there is an Olympus hood for the Sixes. I have one that came with an
Olympus Six (not a Chrome Six) that I bought a long time ago. I've never
seen another sample of the hood since so I assume they are hard to find.
Here's what it looks like:

The hood unscrews from the base to allow you to put in a filtre (a yellow
one is installed in the above picture). It's rather nifty design, I don't
know how you'll ever manage without one :-)
