Generally, that's quite true. For example, the Takumar hood for the 105 lens works beautifully on the 50mm lenses, the hood for the 24mm Takumar works just fine on the K18/3.5, the 85mm Nikon hood works quite well on the K50/1.2, and on and on ..... and these are examples for full frame 35mm cameras. You can probably extend that range considerably when using an APS sized sensor.
