Just trying here before I order one.

Any sort of 'camo' pattern will do.

Can offer you the Lenscoat Forest Green camo pattern for this lens for £46.00 inc P&P.

No longer have the thin sticky strips as they don't stay on the lens.

What are the 'sticky strips'

The 'sticky strip' is a neophrene strip with a sticky backing which is supplied as a strip & cut to size to cover the lens collar.

The other items of the Lenskit for this lens are 4 neophrene tubes which cover the hood & various sections of the barrel.

If you look at the top image at the following link:

http://www.lenscoat.com/lenscoatsuptmsup-canon-p-32.html

working down the top camo is a ring , the 2nd is a sticky & the remainders are rings, the images they show do not have the lens collar fitted and the sticky is used in instead.

After a while the strips peel away from the lens collar and can't be stuck back on using the supplied backing.
