Advantages: Keeps my lens cap clean and scratch free.

Disadvantages: none

A lens cap is important piece equipment if you want to keep your lens in good repair with no scratches or dirt or grime encrusted on it.

The Cannon E77MM lens cap fits my husband's cannon 17-55 ultrasonic zoom lens on his cannon digi camera. .

This lens cap came as standard on my husbands zoom lens when he bought it but can be bought separately. This 77mm lens cap cover will cost £5.99p from http://www.askdirect.co.uk/uview? call=ask.productBrowse&id=469&topcatid=19& amp;make=Canon. If you go into a good camera shop they will probably have them in stock or be able to order one for you.

You do not have to have a cannon camera lens for this lens cap this lens cap cover will fit other makes of lens too, as long as they are 77mm diameter. They do not need to be ultrasonic lens either.
This lens cap came as standard on my husbands zoom lens when he bought it but can be If you have a cannon lens with a 77ml diameter you do not have to have a cannon lens cap. Being cannon it is probably more expensive than a generic one and not much difference in the quality.

. This cannon snap fit lens cap has an outer and inner ring there is a clip either side of the cover which you can push when you are fitting the cap on to your lens this depressed the inner ring, and when over the lens you release the clip and the lens cap snaps fits onto the lens.
This lens cap fits and grips onto the inner edge of the outer rim of the lens cylinder this makes for a good tight fit and I think does not get knocked off as easily as one fitted onto the outer edge of the lens rim. To take the lens cap off all you have to do is depress the clips and it comes off quickly and easily, important if you want to take that snap of the bird that is about to fly away.
This lens cap is quick and easy to put on and take off the lens.

You can buy different types of lens caps, push on ones too some snap on caps are slightly different mechanisms to this cannon one

This lens cap is a hard black plastic. Very strong does not bend. The words Cannon and Ultrasonic are written on the outside. Cannon is written in silver scroll, Ultrasonic in gold. Ultrasonic does not refer to the lens cap but to the lens it came off the motor in the lens works ultrasonically. The silver and gold writing make the lens cap and hence your camera looks distinguished and professional.
Look on the inner face of the lens cap to see the dimension in the centre it says E-77MM Canon Japan this is in raised black writing, so not too easy to see on the black cover.

We have traveled many places my husband camera round is neck or in a rucksack or occasionally in a proper camera bag. This lens cap stays on the lens and he has not lost it yet so must be a good fit. . This lens cap keeps my husbands lens clean and scratches free.
