Hi,

you won't get one shade that's good for both of them.

You don't say whether you're looking for a plastic or a metal shade
(or wood or glass or whatever...), or for clip-on or screw-on. My
personal preference is for metal screw-on shades because they afford a
high degree of protection to the lens. The best brand for me is B+W.
They do wide-angle, normal and tele shades in the full range of fittings.

Other brands worth considering include Heliopan and Nikon, although
Nikon only supply them for Nikon thread sizes. I've always found it
practically impossible to get the correct Pentax hoods.

You can often find lens shades very cheaply in the box of bits that
most decent camera shops have.
