replacement lenscaps

[Ron Marshall]

Would anyone know where Nikon or Fuji lenscaps are sold? I need 60 and 70mm.

B+H is out of stock of Nikon and I doubt there are any North American sources for Fuji.

Are there any alternatives, such as metal caps, perhaps for medium format, that you could recommend?

Ron, if you don't mind having a different brand name on the cap, perhaps the Schneider 60 and 70 front caps would work for you:

If you cannot find factory replacements, the SK Grimes co. can make caps for any lens according to product information at www.skgrimes.com. I don't know how expensive it would be, but it is an option.

Or just walk around the supermarket and try a few random caps from cans of Pringles or Rubbermaid or other products. Seriously, I had a Leica with a pill bottle top for a cap. Looked classy!

I believe B&W used to offer plastic slip on generic caps in various sizes. Check the Schneider Optics web site under B&W filters and you may find what you are looking for.

Hey Frank, you and me both! I'm using juice caps, mayonnaise caps, etc. I use the Dremel tool to make them fit. But the caps are wonderful and have different colors to make it more easy to know what lens one grabs (although I have them all labeled).

KEH.com , under their large format section.

B&H Photovideo sells generic slip-on caps by the millimeter. May be under the name Kaiser but I am not sure.

I've been getting my generic lenscaps from www.camerapeople.net.

The Kaiser caps are a bit lightweight but have the advantage of being easily available (B&H, for example) and available in a wide range of sizes. The Schneider and other name brand caps are heavier. I put Schneider caps (bought from B&H because Schneider service center was out of stock) on my Fujinon. The Fujinon doesn't seem to be offended, nor has it contracted a case of "schneideritis".
