General Brand Body Cap for Nikon Cameras

Comments about General Brand Body Cap for Nikon (Plastic):

This is your standard lens cap. What more do you want?

I personally bought the General Brand one for one main reason. I am working on a project to make a digital pinhole camera. To do this, I need to drill a hole into a lens cap and then apply aluminum foil on the other side. When I poke a pin sized hole inside the aluminum foil, I can then use my digital camera like a pinhole camera.

Results Fun fun fun

To protect my cam from dust. The best I have owned. Read many reviews, but I tried it my self and use it to send the camara body to service to Nikon.

As far as a general brand. This one is made by Bower which is allready a good brand for accessories. The body cap fits the body snugly which it should and because of its plain face, this body cap is great for drilling into and attaching things like precision pinholes. I strongly recomend this body cap. the only problem is it doesn't display the camera well so if you want a nicer look, definetilly get a name brand body cap with a texture or design.

I actually bought this cap to use as a pinhole for my DSLR. It fits the same a the regular Nikon cap, but was easier to drill and sand down since it doesn't have any logos or markings.

Poor design, this cap falls off my Nikon D90
I returned it
and got a second hand genuine Nikon body cap

This inexpensive cap works perfectly with my Nikon D90 and is overall much cheaper than name brand. Can't ask for more.

Cost less than half what the franchised item does. Missing only the logo. Well made. Fits. Keeps dust, etc out.

Why buy name-brand when you can buy a generic body cap that does the same thing? Fit is great, price is right, and this cap will protect your camera as well as a Nikon cap will. No complaints here!

I seem to lose these things every now and again so its nice to have a back up or two.

Comments about General Brand Body Cap for Nikon (Plastic):

Pretty standard. Works better than the plastic ones as it's much more substantial. Screws on like a lens, it doesn't just pop on over the opening.

Comments about General Brand Body Cap for Nikon (Plastic):

Cheaper than official Nikon body caps, but they fit just as well. Definitely don't seem to be as well made (seem a bit thinner as well), but this isn't really a concern. Bonus: if you want body caps to demolish with the intent of making pinhole cameras then these are cheap enough to not feel bad about it.

Comments about General Brand Body Cap for Nikon (Plastic):

It's very obvious why we have these and how to use them -- it's a no-brainer, right?! With DSLRs that don't have great sensor cleaning technology built-in it's more important then ever to keep these around and I bought this as an extra.

I'm impressed that this "general brand" fits so well and even though it's bland, it's price makes it worth having a few extra for all my bodies.
