The cap of my 12mm CV lens is somewhere at the bottom of the North Sea,dropped over the side of a P&O Ferry, caught on an iron railing and just popped off. It took Ringfoto over a year to get me a replacement. A similar cap from the 15mm landed somewhere underneath a steam train on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway a few years ago, as did the batteries from a Metz 45 CT 3 a couple of weeks ago, at least the battery holder stayed on board. cheers Douglas Rick Dykstra wrote: > First time I've ever lost a lens cap.
