I am wondering if my Bay III double and hinged lens cap will still fit both lenses once i add two Heliopan (or Rollei) Bay III UV filters to the front of both lenses. (Bay III that is, Rolleiflex 2.8f, I cannot see how to repair the misprinted header, sorry. [Done under "advanced".])

I am afraid to get the lens fronts themselves wet when I walk out into the surf ... So i need protection ...

Thanks!

Well, I did not mean to fit just both the viewing and taking lens "naked by themselves", they obviously do. But does the twin cap pair still fit these two lenses when they are each covered by one bay III filter: In other words, do the twin lens caps still cover the "extended by a filter pair" lenses?

Sorry, I was not too clear, was I?
 
I'd be more concerned with salt water getting into the shutter and focusing controls than a few drops on the lens surfaces. It's easy enough to wipe them off with a damp piece of lens tissue.
