I'm in need of two 40.5mm lens caps for the 50 and 80mm El Nikkor enlargening lens. Anyone have these that they can spare? PM me if you do.

Thanks,

If all else fails, this should fit:

It's not the original style with the chromed protruding buttons, that seems to be discontinued (or maybe I'm just not looking in the right place on B&H's site).

Or dress up your enlarger lenses: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-40-5mm-Lens-Cap-Cover-For-Nikon-1-V1-J1-Nikkor-VR-10-30MM-30-110MM-RED-/360685321766?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53fa853e26

I bought some of the white version of these from ebay. Two of them were under $5 total shipped from China. Definitely knockoffs, but for the price they work fine. The white color makes them easy to spot in the clutter. I imagine the pink would be even easier to not lose.

Or this one, which is a bit cheaper than the Nikon cap.

Thanks for the link. I might get a couple of the white caps.

Thomas,

You might try KEH. They had some a few years ago. I think the caps were "accessories" under darkroom items--but I may be wrong. Good luck.
