The pinch cap for my camera broke. How does this snap-on cap work to put on &amp; remove? Is it the same as a pinch cap,but on the outside of ring?Thanks!

I'm not really sure. I can't remember if I ever had a pinch cap or not. Usually to put it on I put one side in and then the other. I use the tabs to remove it. If easily clicks in. I hope that helps!

The cap is easily screwed off, but you have to be careful to pull the red latch up or it can catch your finger and give you a good pinch. One of those things that doesn't happen twice though :-)

Dear buyer: In order for me to help with this matter I will need to know what's the diameter of your camera lens. This information can be located in the back of your lens protection cap. Remove your cap to check on this number. You can also see this number on the front of your lens. You will recognize it because it has a symbol of a small circle with a line crossing it and the diameter number follows it. Please forward me this number so that I can further assist you,thank you

The lens cap has two button that you must press to release it. It does not fall off. I understand some early models of this lens did fall off, but the current version is great. Lens works great.

This apparatus works by means of an adhesive attachment to the housing around the lens of the camera, so that you can thread the lens filter and hood to the attachment. i found that the lens hood actually gave me an unwanted cropping at wide angles as it infringed upon the focal area. Then I went to remove the housing, which actually sticks to the camera via the adhesive and it pulled off the original housing housing cover surrounding the lens. i then has to pull the attachment off of the housing so that i could reattach the original housing to the camera that was pulled off when i attempted to undo the operation to the camera. Bottom line, no, it does not work and trying to remove it once you have attached it will potentially damage your camera.

This works very well for me. I have 2 of them. I keep one screwed into my camera body and into the Tripod ring on my 100-400. This way I never have to remove them. I have been using them for about 2 years now and have never had them come loose. The biggest key is to get the lock washer in place correctly. It is a really tight fit. I had to use a needle nose pliers to do it. Hope this helps.

There is a piece that screws to the bottom of the camera. That piece is the coupler that... Yes allows you to snap it in and out.

Yeah the exact same thing happen to me. I hope the lens it's stuck to is not too expensive. Cause the way I chose to remove it was by forcefully twisting it off. If it's a cheap kit lens a little plastic piece will break off. But the lens will work just fine. It won't destroy it, just modify it a little.

I am using this cap on a Canon Rebel Xti EOS. I would recommend going to Canons website and sending them an email to see if this model will fit your camera. Sorry I couldnt help with your question.

Hi... The focus ring is the outer ring that the lens cap sits on... Hope that helps.

The ring locks in with just a quarter turn onto the Canon lens. There's just the tiniest amount of play after it locks in, and that seems reasonable to me. It's easier if you first screw a filter onto the adapter, then the hood onto the filter, then that assembly onto the camera. Feels plenty secure to me.

When I attach the strap, I line up the screw on the strap with the hole on the bottom of the camera and start threading it on by using (twisting/turning) the strap. Then once the thread has started I use the pop up "C" shaped crank (?) and then hand tighten by turning that. I never overtighten but always make sure it is snug then lay the "C" shaped crank flush against the camera. I hope this helps!

SHEP: I have three different brands of lenses for my Nikons. This cap has fit every lens with the corresponding diameter. I believe that it will fit without difficulty. Mine has fit the standard Nikkor lens (none are fisheye) & two different brands of aftermarket lenses. It's a great deal or the price. Durability has never been a problem since these are well built. Most of us lose the cap while shooting. The great price lessens the loss.

There is not a lens cap that fits the larger open end of this hood that I know of. We have to slide the cap inside to take it on and off. You can twist the hood off and on without interfering with the lens cap when putting the camera back into a bag for example.

It is so you don't loose the cap. It attaches to both the lens cap and the camera body. That way you'll never loose it. I wouldn't be without them. Hope this helps you.

The metal ring around the glass filter is threaded. It will screw into the end of the lens (-where the lens cap goes). Leave the filter on all the time. It will protect the camera lens against accidental bumps (-or the lens when the camera hangs down from the neck strap). It's always much cheaper to replace a filter than a lens!

I have this Omni-Bounce plastic cap attached to my Canon Speedlite 270 EXII Flash Set, for more than a year.It fits PERFECTLY to it, and can be easily removed anytime if required!
