Style Name:One Size | Pattern Name:Single The Defender lens cap helps protect the front element of your lens from dirt, moisture and small collisions while being stored in transit. Compatible with most professional level lenses on the market, the Defender dual density construction combines a rigid and hard synthetic polymer plate that is easy to install. Ensures a perfect and secure fit compared to standard plastic lens caps and flimsy universal lens covers. The contoured tactical grip incorporates form and functionality so your camera is ready to capture the content in an instant.

Offers great protection, but at a price
I use screw-in filters that have very slim mounts so they have minimal or no front thread. Normal pinch caps either cannot be used or if they are have the habit of dropping off. When I have been scrambling in the mountains I have lost several pinch caps which fly off at the smallest tap against a rock.On another occasion an exuberant dog jumped up at me catching its paw in my camera strap and dragging the camera to the ground where the pinch flew off and the filter took the full force of the impact with the ground, and shattered into a 1000 pieces. The cost of the replacement was over £75 (luckily the front element of the lens was not damaged).Now with the PolarPro Defender I am confident that my lens is afforded much greater protection when I am carrying the camera by its strap over a shoulder. It's expensive when compared to the cost of a standard pinch cap but will easily pay for itself it it saves a filter or the front lens element from damage.

Good.....but
Great product to use as a lens cap for storage but pretty useless for a lens u will be shooting with, can't go on the ends of any of my lens hoods, the hoods provide protection from bumping the front element and I don't see the point to take the hood off to put the polar pro defender on and then put the hood in your pocket, so for lenses in current use on the camera u may as well just use the normal lens cap with the hood for more protection, also if u reverse the hood the defender won't fit over the lens

Okay but slow and bulky
It is protective allright. However, it can take some time to put it on and off. Kind of slows you down on run and gun situations. And if you are out with camera only, no bag, it is kind of bulky to carry in your pocket. If you are not in a hurry it is perfect.

Great protection but massively overpriced.
Good points: great protection and fit really well to some lens. Don’t come off in your bag like lens caps can but on 82mm filter thread lens can be hard to get on.Bad points: massively over priced, it is essentially a rubber lens cap for £33. Doesn’t fit all 82mm filter thread lenses as is the case with my RF 85 f1.2 where the lens is wider than the filter thread.

Perfect!
I bought a bunch of these for all my lenses and they're a perfect solution.
