The black LC-37C Auto Open Lens Cap from Olympus protects the front element of your M.Zuiko Digital ED 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ lens against scratches, dings, dust, dirt and moisture when not in use. The cap opens automatically when the camera is powered on, allowing you to shoot without removing it, thus saving you a step and helping to ensure that you don't misplace or lose your cap. It will also close automatically when the camera is powered off.

While I will probably not use it right away, it's a smart idea. Unfortunately, I have a UV filter installed on the lens and it interferes with the caps function. The cap needs to press up against the camera when the lens retracts to close. There are two buttons on the back that close the shutter and they don't touch the camera to apply pressure to close with the filter installed.
It works and makes shooting really convenient - good for travel.
