Nikon LC-62 62mm Snap-On Lens Cap

The Nikon LC-62 is a 62mm snap-on front lens cap designed to shield your lens's front element from dust, fingerprints, moisture, and scratches whenever the lens is not actively in use. Its center-pinch mechanism lets you squeeze two small tabs to release the cap, which is particularly useful when a lens hood is attached — you can reach past the hood and remove the cap without taking the hood off first. The cap clicks securely onto the 62mm filter thread and stays firmly in place during transport.

As a genuine Nikon accessory, the LC-62 is manufactured to the same tolerances as the lenses it protects, so you get a precise, snug fit without the looseness that sometimes affects third-party alternatives. It is an inexpensive but essential piece of kit for maintaining the condition of your glass, whether you are storing lenses in a bag, switching between bodies, or simply setting the camera down between shots.
