Hello,

It depends on which Rollei lens hood you have. The Yashicas use Bay 1
accessories. If your Rollei has a ƒ 3.5 Tessar or Xenar as the
taking lens, then you're in luck. If your lens is a Planar or
Xenotar, then the lens hood will not fit. I use the Rollei Bay 1 lens
hood on my mat. I like the Rollei hoods because they are are deeper
from front to back and shield the lens better than tha yashica hoods.
