I know, who cares right? Only those of us with a 2000mm Reflex and no lens cap.

I found this auction: vintage Asahi Pentax huge leather lens cap for Super Takumar 1000mm lens?

Seller says "inner dia.180mm" which is a perfect match for the 2000mm. I don't think any other Pentax lens is a match.

Anyway, super excited to finally have a lens cap for this whale of a lens.

Yay! I once found the missing lens cap for my former mirror lens in the park the next day.

That looks like a cool thing to own just for the sake of it, let alone to fit your lens. Great find

My first thought when I saw the thread title was...you found a hubcap?

I hope I will be as lucky as you to find a FA250-600 cap

I really think you need to write this on the calendar and celebrate the anniversary every year!

It was totally the 2000mm lenscap.
