fvsurfer Member 196 posts Joined Jan 2011 More info | Apr 07, 2011 20:53 | #1 In one of my last threads, somehow a comment about placing a lens cap was brought up. I've heard not to place a lens cap in your pocket because of lint purposes. Where do you guys place your lens caps and where can I buy a bag/pouch small enough for my lens cap so I can put it in my pocket? Canon EOS 60D/Sigma 30mm F1.4 EX DC

I just buy them in bulk from chinese stores on Ebay. They work well enough and are cheap. It's more for convenience and so I don't lose my caps more than it is lint.

It is safer for sure, if there is a UV filter, you never really have to clean the actual front lens element, which means no risk to scratching the front element when wiping it clean.
