Nikon Snap-On Lens Cap Reviews

Everyone needs to have two

I find that snap-on lens caps often snap-off, so I decided I needed to have two, and ordered this one since it's the one that came with the camera. I wish there was an easy way to tie it on to the Nikon Coolpix P1100 camera with a string, so I didn't have to remember whether I put it in a pocket or back in the camera bag or if it dropped to the ground when I was trying to put it in a pocket.

LOL this Nikon 67mm Snap-On Lens Cap is fabulous!

Will this fit an AF-S Nikkor 24-70 mm 1:2.8E lens?
Asked by: Crystal
No, the Nikon 72mm snap-on lens cap is too small for the AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8; the lens needs an 82mm lens cap.

No, that is too big for the Nikon 18-55mm lens. For that lens you need a 52mm snap on lens cap. http://bhpho.to/1lR1NCm

question

Does this fit the older model Nikon 2.8 180mm manual lens?
Asked by: Bryan M.
If you are referring to the Nikon AF NIKKOR 180mm f/2.8D IF-ED Lens (B&H # NI18028DEDAF), or if your lens uses 72mm filters (as the Nikon AF NIKKOR 180mm f/2.8D IF-ED Lens does), then yes, the Nikon 72mm Snap-On Lens Cap would be compatible for use with your lens.
