Description

Old M42 lenses can take a lot, but the rear side with the rear element is exposed as soon as the original cap is missing. We make this rear cap specifically for the M42 standard, and it keeps dust and scratches away from classics like the Helios-44 or Takumar 50 mm. Simply screw it on, done.

Customer reviews

Transparency note: As a thank-you for a published review after an order, we send every customer a discount code for their next order, regardless of the star rating.

    After a purchase we ask for a review by email. New reviews appear automatically; we read them afterwards and never remove one because of its star rating. “Verified purchase” means the review came through the review link of an order in our shop. “Verified” marks older reviews that our previous review service, Judge.me, had labelled as verified. Reviews imported from Amazon are labelled and not included in the average. How we collect and check reviews

That’s why we design our parts ourselves in Würzburg, and we make and assemble most of them here too. Batteries and rechargeables come from other manufacturers, for example Varta.
