I'm looking for a lens cap for Summicron-C 1:2/40mm. Best if it's made out of metal, otherwise plastic is ok. It came with the rubber sun shade but I won't use that, so the cap needs to work just on the bare lens. Can anyone suggest a product? Thanks a lot!

Have you removed the rubber shade? I have this lens and lost the cap a few years back. Managed to get a new plastic one eventually from Richard Caplan Cameras in London. It snaps nicely into the lens but has a wide-ish flange that sits within the folded in shade. Without the shade it's probably not as secure.

Hi thanks for the reply, yes I've removed the shade. I've just found this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/362385701128 which seems to come close to what I'm looking for. Also looking into possibly 3d-printing an own shade like described here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PZjMB03Ujw need to get that old 3d-printer out of the cellar again
