I wanted to see what all the fuss is about, so I tried on my Canon lens cap.

It's sizes in at approximately 65MM.

I have to say, in all seriousness, the bigness of this thing didn't bother me as much as I thought it would.

After I put my 40MM sub back on, I have to admit, it did feel very small.

I agree it might be O.K. as a plastic cap but a 65mm steel case is going to feel very different, that is for sure.

DSJ · 30 July 2008, 12:57 AM

Is that PVD coated?

ronintt · 30 July 2008, 12:59 AM

Looks hard to read, though that could be the lighting.
Whats the lume like?
