Lens protector

One of the best things I have ever bought for my camera is a lens protector. It is a rubberized cap that quickly fits over the lens to protect it from any bangs and dings when I am moving about. A lot easier than trying to fit lens caps.

I puchased from Adorama.com. It is the DeluxGear LG-S lens guard and is made in three sizes to fit all diameter lenses. It costs $19.95 and is well worth it for the protection it offers.
Just thought I would throw this out as information.

What? That's what a UV filter is for! Just kidding. I have looked at these in the past but never purchased.

A UV filter doesn't stop your lens getting dinged from the side. :D

I bought three of these for my lenses. They fell off everytime I accidentally bumped against something. They don't work for me.

So sorry to hear that itpurs. Did you get the right sizes. Mine fits very snugly over my main lens.
