So far as I see Canon has no lens hoods for the RF 2/85 and 1.8/50 lenses in stock.
As I bought these lenses I fitted two screw mount hoods. They do there job but are not very handy.
Which lens hoods fit RF 2/85 and 1.8/50 lenses? Some dealer say the EF 1.8/50 hood fits the RF 1.8/50, too.
I found some 3rd party hoods for the RF 2/85 on ebay but I'm not convinced that they really fit this lens.

The info is available on the product pages for these lenses under the Supplies & Accessories section.
For the RF 85mm f/2, you'd want Lens Hood ET-77. See This Link.
For the RF 50mm f/1.8, you'd want Lens Hood ES-65B. See This Link.

Meanwhile I got the ES-65B, but this hood is far to big for the RF 50mm f/1.8. It is a very good transport security but not handy. It is longer as the lens and it is a pain in the ass to reverse the hood. It occupies also to much space in the bag.
My screw-on hood is much more handy.

I would not buy any of these.

I agree whith you. I have 2 JCC hood for RF lenses - the brand name may be different in other contries. They fit and work very well and have a press button.
But a lot other 3rd party hood on ebay are junk. My wife bought two for her EF-S lenses, one works since 2 years, the other one jammed after some months and is useless after 15 months.

Three years later and there is no lens hood shown for this lens. There are front and rear lens caps, but no hood - even though one is shown in the instructions for the lens,

This is simple
.The 85mm f/2 takes Canon's ET-77 hood.
The 50mm f/1.8 takes the ES-65B hood.
If JJC offers a versions of these, go for it. JJC's hoods are as good as, if not the same as, Canon's.

The 85 f2 does take the ET-77 but that hood is not available from the Canon online store. I just ordered a Vello hood from B&H that's a direct replacement for the ET-77.
