Lost lens cap?

BethC · 09-02-2009, 07:51 PM

I lost the lens cover for my 18-55 mm lens that came with my K10D (Lost it at the park, looked in the tall grass forever and finally gave up

) I am looking to replace it but not exaclty sure I'm looking at the right one. Does anyone know if this is the one I need? It looks like it, but I"m just not sure. it says it's for DA 18-250 lenses. But it's the only one that looks like the one I lost

You need the cap with the same diameter as the 18-55. It should be engraved on the lens, usually with a -0- mark against it. Or take the size off a filter that you use with the lens.

thanks! I just noticed it was on the lens and came on here to try to delete my post. I'm off to go look again for the right one.

Nope. The one you need is 52mm. If you're looking for the genuine one, its gonna be called Pentax O-LC52 (like here). If you just need a lens cap, and don't need it to say "Pentax", you can just go to ebay and search "lens cap 52mm"
