Question though, before I force my copy to the 32mm. Did your lens hood still fit snuggly on the 18-150mm after all the attaching and de-attaching on the 32mm.

Same shot from before...

The nature of my iPhone lens means the EW-60F lens hood looks oversized in this image... but it looks quite well proportioned on the 32mm lens.

A more accurate scale for the hood is visible here.  It's actually quite narrow.

I don't own the EF-M 18-150mm lens.  I bought the EW-60F especially to use on the EF-M 32mm lens.  I prefer lens hoods with petal designs over tubular hoods so this made sense for me.  I also wanted a much shorter lens hood for transport and day to day convenience.  The higher price for the custom hood that was made for this lens was around $60 here with a list price closer to $70... which is outrageous.
.
Another alternative is the Leica style "open lens hood" - which tends to be made from alloys (aluminum) , but this will thread onto the lens barrel assembly and may transfer impacts into the lens elements if dropped.  The lighter, plastic ones from Canon are designed to take the impact whilst protecting the lens.
