It Must Have a Name
When you remove the lens on a DSLR, you have a big hole that it is begging for dust and dirt. Of course you always put another lens on it at once. My previous Pentax DSLR had a black plastic insert that would fit into lens connector to keep dirt and bugs out while I was carrying it out to the telescope where I would put the telescope adapter in place of the lens. It is not a lens cap. The dimensions are wrong and it is rather more like a T-ring. What is it called so that I know for what to search?
Used to call those body caps.

ReplyDeleteThat's what it was called when I bought my Minolta SLR.
ReplyDeleteA body cap. Now what the cap on the back of the lens is called, I do not know.
Back lens cap.
