The rear side fits a regular lens cap but the front side does not fit a regular body cap. My imagine composition sucks. I need a heavier lens.

The rear side fits a regular lens cap but the front side does not fit a regular body cap. A quick bag'n'boxes raid didn't reveal a fitting item. Can somebody remind me what the cap is supposed to look like? They look the same except the extender cap is roughly 1/8" thicker,went thru the same ordeal not long ago and finally after about 2 hours found it in a bag I don't use any more that was stuffed in a cabinet in my garage....PITA!

Yeah but with the extender on the 70-200 I'm screwed if I want my f-stop back or need the 70mm. Then the extender has to go into the bag. My imagine composition sucks. I need a heavier lens.
