Lost my fz3 lens cover

[xianglong]

Just lost my fz3 lens cover, anyone has any idea how much this thing cost? Just came back from shanghai, somemore bought less than a week. Anyone selling it? =(

I guess you can always get a generic one for a few dollars at MS Color/CP/AP/TCW

you didn't use the supplied thread to tie the lens cover to the camera? guess that you can get a generic 55mm one.

ok thanks for the information. I did not use the supplied thread because i did not know how to tie the thing to the camera. Can i use the supplied thread together with the generic cover?

I didn't know that a thread was supplied to tie the lens cover to the camera.
FZ20 package come with it or not? :dunno:
I wanted to buy one.

FZ20 doesn't has it. Only FZ3.
Just buy generic lens cap with strap. :think:

you can use it provided that the cover you buy has a hole at the side for the thread.

tying it is very easy, just like what you do when you tie the wrist cord to a handphone.

ask your mum to help if you still can't figure out.

ok guys thanks for the all information. i got the generic cap at 5 bucks from alan photo. Note that only 52mm cap fits, i got the 55mm but changed it later. Well better than nothing, although the original looks much better. Need to get a silver marker to write the lumix wording outside =(
