For their primary purpose of flare prevention, I'm not a fan on hoods on wide angle capable zoom lenses since their benefit is minimal especially at the long end. And a hood on a pancake rather eliminates the size benefit. Even adding a protection filter was too thick for me. I have a habit of sticking my finger on the front of pancake lenses for some reason...
And does anyone really use pouches? I think I only ever use them for long term storage. They just get in the way for normal use.
Anyway, if I can ask, how do you find the AF speed? Particularly for tracking in a direction towards/away from camera. I think that is the biggest reason over the alternatives I might consider looking at this as a smaller backup system in future.
