waka 3 Pack 77mm Center Pinch Lens Cap Cover with Cap Keeper for Canon EF 24-105mm f4L, EF 24-70mm f4L, EF 16-35mm f4L, Nikon AF-S 20mm f1.8, AF-S 16-35mm f4G and Other Lenses with 77mm Filter Thread

I purchased these to replace a missing lens cap on a Nikon Nikkor 18-70 mm lens. I am very happy with these lens caps. The spring in the pinch apparatus has just the right amount of tension. Not difficult to pinch, but enough outward force to keep the cap firmly in place. The caps easily slot into place and provide good coverage. Many reviews discuss difficulty in attaching the tether to the cap. Maybe they've changed the design since those reviews were written, but I had very little difficulty. In fact, I was able to attach the tether in under a minute (and would have been quicker if I had used more light). Looking at the other reviews, I think that they were using the helper tool incorrectly. Many of the reviews stated that the tool was too big to fit into the hole in the top of the cap, but that's not where it's supposed to be used. The tool (essentially the same as the tools used to open the sim card drawer on a cell phone) is meant to be used for retrieving the end of the tether from the side of the cap, not for pushing the tether into the hole on top of the cap The tether, which is a loop, attaches by being inserted into a small hole in the top of the cap, and then pulling the inserted end out an opening in the side of the cap (you then pass the part of the tether that goes around the lens through the end of the loop retrieved from the side of the cap). I folded the thin string loop at the top of the loop (basically, pinched the loop to make it narrower), and easily inserted the loop into the hole in the top of the cap. When this is done, you can see the loop hanging down in the slot on the side of cap. Then I used the tool to get behind the loop and pull it out of the hole. In this regard, it might be better if the tool had a little hook on the end, rather then just being straight. Either way, it was pretty easy to fish out the loop. As I said, I am very happy with these caps, and would recommend them to others.

I just purchased an old camera kit with three lenses - no caps. The lenses are all different diameters, so I had to purchase three separate lens cap packs. I ended up going with three different companies, so I could compare and contrast. This one was the best of the three by far. For the 58mm lens I bought a set by Altura. This came with the leashes already threaded, which was a big bonus, but the threading was simply a very thin elastic cord that I then had to figure out how to wrap around my lens (and stay there). After I figured it out (sort of), I looked in the bag and also found a package of stick on leashes. Am I supposed to use these too? Instead of the other leashes? I’m confused. The 55mm lens caps I ordered were surprising in that they said Nikon on them (they were not sold by Nikon). The leash was also just an thin elastic string that was not attached, and wasn’t even tied! That left this one, the 52mm Waka caps. Yes, attaching the leash took some effort, and like another customer, I ended up having the elastic come through the cover on one of the leashes (I only needed one, so I just switched it out and started again). What I wish they had stated on the instructions is that there is a tool in the box to help with the installation. I didn’t know it was in there, and didn’t even know to look for it. Anyway, the leash on these caps is a considerably better quality than on the other two sets I purchased. It is not just a string, but a wide stretchy band that fits nicely over my lens, and stays on it securely. I will be purchasing this brand for my other lenses as well.

These are an excellent value. Despite the design flaw, I recently purchased 4 sets of these lens caps (49mm, 52mm, 67mm and 72mm) because the peel and stick on cap attachment type is not reliable. I do not understand why the threading hole cannot be made larger in order to more easily accept the sheathed nylon cord. I was able to eventually thread 8 of 12 lens caps using the supplied tool. Not a one of them threaded neatly however. In every case, the nylon core of the sheathed cable was exposed resulting in a nylon loop in addition to a sheathed loop securing the cap. I thought about enlarging the holes myself but didn't want to risk ruining a cap(s) and one shouldn't have to do this. Please make the holes larger on your next production run or supply the caps already properly threaded and knotted.

Skepticism is appropriate for a bundled product that is made of plastic under $10. However, it was unwarranted after using this product for its intended purpose. The package arrived earlier than posted as expected. All pieces were in order and new. The plastic material is solid and does not appear to be broken easily. The cap fits tightly onto a Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED VR II zoom lens. Check the lens manufacturer's specification for exact lens cap size if unsure; this information can be found in the manual. The cap has a small ring hole to lace the leash through for the band to wrap around the lens tube. Use a metal poking rod from a dissecting kit or alternatively a sewing needle to push the leash line into the small hole. This design is superior to Nikon's original lens cap; Nikon should adopt this design for their future lens products. A quality purchase with a fair price for a generous amount of lens in the package. One would pay more for only a single cap for the "Nikon" label that has an inferior design.

The lens cap and leash keeper are exactly as described and just what I was looking for to protect my lens on my camera. What I like about the leash keeper it fits around the lens very snug and secure and doesn't fall off my camera. The caps for the lens are also very good and well made. It comes with a microfiber cloth which was very nice and also a tool if you need it to install the string. Very pleased and satisfied with this product.

works perfectly.forgot I ordered these until I dropped my Cap and it broke the other day. thank goodness I had these. and no more dropping caps.

Before I made my purchase, I looked at the reviews on this product. Many people complain about the teeny tiny little hole with which to string through the connecting wristband. Taking that information into consideration I started initially with a floss threader that I use for my Bridge. What I found work was threading the loop end of the threader through the small hole and digging it out with a safety pin. The loop would often get caught in the needle end of the safety pin, and would come through quite quickly. I would then Loop the thread end of the wristband threw the floss threader and pull it through the hole. Then I would unloop them from each other and loop the wristband end through the thread end. The process went very quickly, once I figured it out. If you so, I would think that you could also use one of the metal gauges that you use for threading a needle to do the same thing. The caps fit very nicely on my lenses, and the quality seems good. So, yes, threading it is a bit of a PUTA, but that should not prevent you from purchasing it anyway, particularly now that you have simple instructions on what to use and how to do it.

The caps were great. It fit my Nikon D3400 perfectly. Even more snug than the cap that it came with. It was a really nice touch to add a microfiber towel and a pin to help thread in the "leash". The leash was unfortunately useless as the hole through which it's meant to go through was made too close to the edge of the cap. Using the pin broke the thin plastic and now there's no hole through which the rope can go through. Just a gap in the cap. The rope threads don't look strong either, and one was fraying. A good yank would probably be the end of it.

Perfect replacement for the flimsy and fragile plastic spring system that Nikon provided with their branded one. These fit perfectly (both on the lens and my UV-C (static) and PL (rotatable) filters. Spares if needed and the straps fit nicely onto the lens (not too tightly). In addition, the lens strap fits nicely to the cap without creating a gap between the lens and cap. Three caps as well so hopefully will last me a good while before needing any further replacements!

Multiples tentative d'accrocher ce cache à divers objectifs ... Ne tient pas bien ou pas du tout. Si vous avez un pare soleil n'y pensez même pas ... Un achat vraiment inutile en ce qui me concerne

Mein originaler Sony Objektivdeckel Ø 55 mm ist heruntergefallen und die Plastikfedern waren sofort gebrochen. Kein Wunder bei dieser filigranen Konstruktion. Für den Originalpreis von Sony 1 Stück, habe ich nun 3 Stück von "Waka" erhalten. Die Qualität der Deckel sieht super aus und scheint wesentlich stabiler zu sein. Zur Haltbarkeit kann ich jetzt noch nichts sagen. Er sitzt perfekt und fest auf meinen Objektiv. Ein Putztuch sowie je ein Halteband mit Einfädelhilfe war auch dabei. Kann ich nur weiter empfelen.

Cache objectif au moins aussi protecteur que ceux d'origine, tiennent bien sur les objectifs, ne se décroche pas au moindre petit choc, je recommande fortement !!
