Setup and Installation

The K&F CONCEPT Magnetic Metal Lens Cap offers two primary methods for attachment: magnetic and thread-based. It is crucial to note that the magnetic function is exclusively compatible with K&F CONCEPT magnetic filters.

Magnetic Attachment (for K&F CONCEPT Magnetic Filters)

  1. Ensure your camera lens is equipped with a K&F CONCEPT magnetic filter.
  2. Align the magnetic lens cap with the front of the magnetic filter.
  3. The cap will snap into place securely due to the magnetic connection. This method allows for quick installation and removal, preventing scratches to your lens filter.

Thread-Based Attachment (for standard threaded filters/lenses)

  1. If not using a K&F CONCEPT magnetic filter, the cap can be screwed onto any lens or filter with a matching thread size.
  2. Carefully align the threads of the lens cap with the threads on your lens or filter.
  3. Rotate the cap clockwise until it is securely fastened. Do not overtighten.

Operating the Lens Cap

The primary function of this lens cap is to protect your camera lens and any attached filters from dust, scratches, and impacts when not in use or during transport.

  • Protection: When the cap is installed, it forms a robust barrier against external elements, safeguarding the delicate glass of your lens and filters.
  • Quick Access: The magnetic attachment allows for rapid removal and re-attachment, ensuring you don't miss a shot while fumbling with traditional caps.

Troubleshooting

Problem: Magnetic attachment does not work.
Solution: The magnetic function of this lens cap is specifically designed for K&F CONCEPT magnetic filters. If you are using a filter from another brand or a non-magnetic filter, the magnetic attachment will not function. In such cases, use the thread-based attachment method.
Problem: Lens cap does not fit the lens/filter.
Solution: Ensure you have selected the correct size lens cap for your lens or filter. The K&F CONCEPT Magnetic Metal Lens Cap is available in various sizes (e.g., 49mm, 52mm, 55mm, 58mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm, 77mm, 82mm, 86mm, 95mm). Check the diameter marking on your lens or filter and compare it with the cap's size.
