With the filter on, can I still use the original lens cap that came with my camera, or must I buy a new one?

Yes - you must buy a new lens cover. I bought one that also included an elastic strap that slide over the lens and with a cord and double-sided tape connector for the lens cap so that you can take it off and let it hang and not lose it. Sorry I don't remember where I got it.

No you can't. You need a 58mm lens cap. The Goja cap is better than the original.

You will need a new 58mm lens cap for when you have the adaptor installed. The original cap that came with the camera will be too small to fit the filter, or any other 58mm accessories you pick up later.

You must buy a 58mm lens cap because the original one only fits the 52mm lens that is on the Canon SX50. But, with the 58mm UV filter on there really isn't any good reason to place a lens cap over it. A major reason to have the UV lens is to protect the camera's lens and it does. I have had several cameras and never used the lens cap -- only a UV filter to protect the camera lens. Hope you enjoy thye great Canon SX50. It is amazing with its 50x magnification.

yes, however, I put the filter on and went out and shot lots of great pictures with my Canon SX50 only to return and fine every picture blurry. This was not operator error or camera problem, pictures the day before and the day after were excellent without the filter, so.....

No. Keep in mind though, the stock lens cap that came with your camera cannot be used to protect the filter from dirt and scratches. You will need to obtain a 67mm lens cap to do that.

The previous response is correct, you need an adapter to use filters. But if you use the adapter, you can't use a lens hood. The filter/adapter is wider than the lens.

It came with a lens cap fort he front and back. I bought a filter for extra protection.

this is the only thing u need. i attach my 52mm hood to it. But u first need to remove the ring around the camera (that is on by default that comes with the camera) then attach this to it. Hope that helps. It also means u cannot use the camera lens cap that came with it.

The filter thread seems to be standard. I bought a stock 58mm UV filter, and it fit perfectly. You will need a new lens cap; the original won't fit on a 58mm filter. Also, if you currently use a lens hood, it won't fit either.

Thank you for contacting us. You may use an old lens with the item you are inquiring about as long as you use the correct adapter to connect the two.

You can order a replacement. Do a little research at Maglighte.com & find a repacement. I think the part# you are looking for is Face Cap 201 157. You can get another lens & upgrade to an aftermarket scalloped face cap / bezel .

Just a novice, but I installed a 52mm screw-on UV filter on the front of the lens to protect it from scratches. This keeps dirt off the lens and allows me to clean only the filter with alcohol wipes without fear of damaging the lens. If the UV filter gets scratched, it is easily, and most importantly, inexpensively replaced. Check with a real camera store for cleaning materials for lenses. On-line searches for camera forums should also provide a wealth of information.

The filters screw over your existing lens. If your camera has 58mm lens, make sure you ordered the kit that fits 58mm.

No, the original SX series cap no longer fits after the adapter and filter are mounted onto the camera. The 58mm lens cap must be used....

I don't think a lenscap is necessary since the filter and parasoley is already providing an enough protection for the lens. I don't use any and never had a problem. I hope this helps...

Check your lens manual for filter size. Doesn't that lens come with a lens hood?

What I have got is Genuine Canon Lens cap, fits perfectly with filters on my lens.

I don't have that lens, however if you call Olympus, they'll be able to tell you or send a replacement cap.

Which lens? The cap fits specific lenses so you need to know what size fits the lens on your camera.

I bought the 52mm kit for my (35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX) lens and the cap works with or without filters. My bet is it will for you too.
