New lens cap for 40mm/1.4 Nokton?

[cornrow]

Hey guys,

In my travels I have lost the cap for my 40/1.4. I know that finding snap on replacements isn't too hard, but this one had a cool design so that it could actually fit on the lens without removing the hood.

Any idea where I can get a new one of these?

How about the same place you bought the camera? If you bought it new.

Otherwise CameraQuest in the USA, or Robert White in Europe.

I love the design of that cap too but the spring latch seems week and I often worry that I will lose mine. I've never seen one like it either so I would try Cameraquest.

Thanks a lot! I'm going to check with Cameraquest.

If that doesn't work out I've seen plenty of generic Chinese caps on ebay that will suit your need. They don't have Voigtlander logo, but they're "center-squeeze" caps, so should fit with the lens hood on, like you want.

Avoid Them Like the Plague! I´ve seen too many front elements damaged from plastic outgassing😡.

I like the Nokton 43mm cap so much I just purchased four to use on different lenses. Cost me 714 yen (US$7.35) each. Well worth the extra expense over generic caps. Camera Quest should have them, or will be able to order them if they don't have stock.
