I said in my review of the Fuji X100 JCC lens hood (the review can be found here) that when I get my new lens cap, I will post it so here it is: the Maximal Power center pinch lens cap that fits a 49mm thread. This cap only cost me 2.99! I have Amazon Prime so I got free two day air shipping on it…Saturday shipping also. I love Amazon.
The lens cap fits perfectly with the lens hood on. It comes with a thin string so that you can attach it to the camera but I took that off. I hate those strings…makes me feel like a retired tourist in tight shorts going on a cruise. There’s really not much else to say about it. It fits good, and it’s less than three bucks so even if you don’t like it, it’s not like you put a huge investment into it.
Thanks for posting this review of such a useful little part. I’ve also been considering JCC’s combined lens cap + hood (http://www.amazon.com/Professional-HoodCap-Fuji-Digital-Camera/dp/B0061CV262).
Thanks for reading it! That’s also pretty cool, I’ve never seen it before. It’s kind of like the one they made for the D-Lux and LX series cameras.
Just found this, thanks for the idea. They now want $10.
I’ll see if I can find similar cheaper.
Hi A Young,
No problem. Thanks for visiting. They want $10 now? That’s a big change in such a short time. Let me know if you find something cheaper!
Take care,
Patrick
