4.0 out of 5 stars A necessary evil... and a godsend..., August 6, 2007

By	Scrawller on da Waller - See all my reviews

I always take an extra one of these (and all my lens/body caps) with me wherever I go just in case I lose one on the road. You can of course get an off-brand cap for a little bit cheaper, but they are sometimes harder to find for some reason. You can find Adorama's version by looking for "Adorama Rear Lens Cap for Canon EOS Lens Mount." (including the period ('.') symbol). But I'm sure a lot of people want to stay in house to ensure that their very expensive lens is very protected. However, I can't truly speak to the off-brand lens caps because I don't have any. All I have are couple Bower caps that came with some of their lens filters, which aren't as sturdy as Canon's. So I think for many the branded caps are a necessary evil (price-wise) and a godsend (functionally). There is just one gripe I have in particular with the rear lens cap: it is very loosely attached. That is, it stops threading after just a slight turn, and thus comes off almost as easily. I know that this is a result of the lens design, but I would think that canon would have designed a simple system of ensuring that your rear lens cap will stay on even if bumped ever so slightly, like indentations on the lens joint that would be filled by plastic bumps on the cap and thus not affect the lens/camera joint.

Needed this cap for months. Bought it and works/fits perfectly with my Canon EOS 20D and its lenses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good to have an extra, December 12, 2006

By	R. Allen (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a nice extra to have in your camera bag...I keep mine in a ziplock bag so that it doesn't pickup dust and I have an extra if all the lenses are off my camera. Fits all EF and EF-S lenses. Just like the one you get with the lens.
