67mm lens cap replacement. Works will lenses like the 18-135mm or the 70-300mm VR. Not sure what size is your lens? Look at the rear of the lens near where the end cap will go. You'll see a bunch of letterings and numbers. The last number is your filter size.

If you have a nikon lens and use the sun hood on it, you need this lens cap. I lost my original and bought a replacement of another brand and type. If you buy a cap that only has release buttons on the outside edge of the cap, you will not be able to get the cap back on with the lens hood in place. This cap has release buttons on the inside front of the cap as well as release button on outer edges. A MUST have item!

This lens cap is very similar to the Nikon one that was lost. However, it does not say Nikon on it. But a good price!

Anyone familiar with cameras and specifically the lenses on cameras should know that lens caps are an important part of the setup. The replacement Nikon Snap-on Lens that I received was an identical match to the original 67 mm lens cap that came with the camera. I find the cap easy to use, and it does a more than adequate job protecting the lens. The Nikon snap-on is quick and secure when placed on the lens. I also use a uv-filter between the lens and cap to provide addition protection for the lens. The snap-on fits into the filter just as easily as the lens itself. The only problem as with any lens cap is remembering to remove it before taking a picture and also remembering where you stored it.

I ordered a used Nikon 18-70mm zoom and it came without a front cap. I went to Ritz and bought a cheap quantaray cap, but the tabs stuck out too far to use it with the hood on. Should have spent the extra few dollars for the Nikon one, it fits great even with the hood
