I share your love of the Fuji 60mm f2.4 also your aversion to the silly lens hood. I bought a 3rd party parallel metal screw-in lens hood which comes with a cap for the hood as below. However, if i want to be really compact I use the small rectangular bayonet hood from my Fuji 35mm f1.4.

That's a pretty ingenious solution. Now I wish I had the 35 1.4

I don't own the 60mm but it is a lens I've been looking at for quite some time. I've seen many wonderful shots that folks have posted. I'm holding off a little longer to see if Fuji does release the rumored 80 f/2.8 with 1:1 macro. Thanks for posting the pics, I love the B&W shots.

If macro's what you're after then yeah, I think that's the right thing to do.
