seekwul Posted January 22, 2015 Share #1 Â Posted January 22, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi I have the new 75/2.0 Asph APO-Summicron (with the collapsible hood). When there is a filter on the lens (polarizing, skylight, ir-cut - anything) the lens cap does not attach. Anyone recommend some kind of third party lens cap so I can toss the camera in my bag without risk ? Â Thanks Brad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff S Posted January 22, 2015 Share #2 Â Posted January 22, 2015 Is it a Leica brand 'pinch' style cap? Â Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenInTime Posted January 22, 2015 Share #3 Â Posted January 22, 2015 No such problem with my 75 APO , filters ( B+W and Hoya ) and Leica 49mm 14001 cap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmradman Posted January 22, 2015 Share #4 Â Posted January 22, 2015 Most normal depth filters will accept pinch type lens caps while some thin filters come without thread to allow use of pinch caps, these are served by push on type and good filter brands have such caps. Â Thin filters are designed to minimise vignetting on wide angle lenses and have no real advantage over normal filter on long lens such as 75mm.

lct Posted January 22, 2015 Share #5  Posted January 22, 2015 +1. The clip-on 14001 lens cap fits well my 75/2 apo and Leica 49mm filters. Welcome, dear visitor!

seekwul Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share #6 Â Posted January 22, 2015 Thanks everyone. It is the pinch style cap that came with the lens. I was trying with a thin filter (it was laying around), so that would explain it. I'll stick to thicker filters. Â B Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgk Posted January 22, 2015 Share #7 Â Posted January 22, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) You could measure the outer hood diameter and look for a push on cap which fits over the hood (auction site?). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
