Okay - here is how I think it can work. Stay away from giving any money to the evil Nikon people even mention the evil name even if it is for the $5.00 or under lens cap. Promaster sells knockoffs that work just as well and are half the price.

I've bumped the edge of my caps and they popped off several times, especially when sticking my camera in the bag....

My 28mm f/2.8 came without a cap, so I bought a Bower cap at a local retailer for $2.50, and I too like the center pinch lock.

I got one that is canon, got it today. I must have done 1 day shipping at amazon.com. lol I will check out the name you mentioned Skippy though!

Now you boys, don't make me crack some skulls together ( as my dad used to say to my younger sister and I. lol He never did of course, just wanted to sound tough) because of all your bickering!!

Don't make me! lol
