Overview

The Canon E-58 II is Canon's standard 58mm front lens cap, designed to protect the front element of any Canon lens with a 58mm filter thread. Its center-pinch design allows you to grip the two raised tabs in the middle of the cap to snap it on or off, which is more convenient than older side-pinch designs — particularly when a lens hood is attached, since your fingers access the center of the lens rather than the outer edge. Canon lists compatibility with lenses such as the TS-E 90mm f/2.8, but it will fit any lens or filter with a standard 58mm thread.

Constructed from lightweight black plastic with the Canon logo printed on the front, the E-58 II is a straightforward, no-frills accessory. It provides essential protection against dust, fingerprints, scratches, and minor impacts when the lens is not in use or stored in a bag. As a genuine Canon part, the fit and snap tension are consistent with what ships on Canon lenses originally, making it a reliable replacement if your original cap has been lost or damaged.

Frequently Asked Questions

The E-58 II uses a center-pinch design that snaps onto the inside of the 58mm filter thread. You squeeze the center tabs to release or attach the cap.
While Canon lists compatibility with their own EF lenses such as the TS-E 90mm f/2.8, the E-58 II fits any lens or filter with a standard 58mm front thread, regardless of brand.
The Canon E-58 II does not have a built-in attachment point for a cap keeper strap. However, aftermarket adhesive cap keepers can be used with it.
Check the front of your lens or the inside of your current lens cap for the diameter marking, often shown with a ⌀ symbol. If it reads 58mm, this cap will fit.
