I'm sure it's a very good cap for someone's 58mm lens, just not mine. It doesn't fit.

Nikon lens cap.

Exact replacement for the one that was lost. If you're not sure what size you need, check the lens, it is usually printed on it somewhere.

Works as intended as a spare cap. As always Adorama shipped it the same day I ordered it. The VIP program is well worth it!

Needs to be improved by Nikon.

This is the second time I'm replacing this lens cap. So I'm on my third one (including the original) since my camera was new in 2018. It's because of the flimsy plastic tension spring design. Nikon needs to go with a better design which I have on my larger Nikon caps with a real spring. I'm not abusive with my equipment and take pride and care of such. Yet despite that, these caps fail. I'm always leery of buying or straying from original replacement products, so I bought another with fingers crossed.

It's a Nikon 67 mm lens cap cover for a Nikon 67 mm lens, end of story.

I have always had a great experience with Adorama over the past 25 years plus. They have what I need at a competitive price. I had my order promptly delivered on the day they said I would get it!

Lousy

Thanks to advise from your employee this was the wrong item and no one at Adorama cares to help so you item and customer service stinks. Still waiting for someone to help. I have talked to two robots that did not care.

Definitely better than a generic

I managed to lose my original Nikon lens cap a while ago, and at that time, I replaced it with a cheaper, flat (non-branded) cap. However, that one falls off very easily, so much so that I?m amazed I haven?t lost it on many occasions. I got fed up with it leaving my lens exposed, and ordered this Nikon cap. It is much more secure and easier to put on and take off, so I?m delighted I did!

A reason to buy original Nikon accessories

By robosolo

I'm bothering to write a review on a lowly lens cap because I got burned by not purchasing a genuine Nikon lens accessory. I lost the original lens cap when it fell from my shirt pocket during a shooting trip. When I went to replace it, I couldn't find anything but a generic cap that had a tether that would loop around the lens or attach to the body. I found a generic one with a tether and it was way cheaper than a real Nikon cap so I bought it instead. Big mistake. The tether worked great bu...

Perfect design. Best I've ever seen.

By Mack R.

Normally, I'm not the type to spend extra bucks on plastic accessories, but these Nikon caps are actually worth it. The generics work, but the Nikon caps are so perfect, you wonder why it took so long for such a basic accessory to reach its zenith of design. They're convenient -- you can pinch 'em on and off from the inside (good with hoods), or squeeze 'em on and off from the outside. They're thicker than other caps. They stay in place even when being pulled from tight bags. An expens...
