Just send a check for $99.99 to Leica USA and they will be happy to send
you a lens cap!
(Yes, I'm exaggerating, but not by much. One can certainly argue that
the bodies and lenses may be expensive, but they are also very very
good. But where Leica is really outrageous is in the pricing of little
pieces of plastic...):-)

Subject: [Leica] lens caps


Greetings,

Being fairly new the Leica world I haven't, until now, experienced what
I think is a very common occurrence - the loss of a Leica lens cap (for
my 3E). 
I was just hiking about through the quarter in New Orleans on my way to
what was a lovely supper and BAM! it was gone.  Quite frustrating.  So,
the
question:  Are the caps readily available from Leica or am I to suffer
the void of a lens capless Tri-Elmar?  Anyone know a decent non-Leica
replacement (I know there was a fairly recent post on that topic - but
the 3E was not included)?  I suppose any 49mm cap would do - right?

As always, thanks in advance for any info.

Frank
