I've done 35mm photography on and off for nearly 30 years now, and there's something I've NEVER understood.....What do you use a body cap for? I have one, it came with my M4P, and I have it in the box. If you have at least one lens per body, then you don't need a body cap. If you DON'T have one lens per body, then you have TOO MANY BODIES (sell me one, a cheap user M4) I'm sorry if this sounds cynical, I HONESTLY have never found a use for a body cap. I guess if you were "storing" bodies, but then why not just put them in a zip-lock bag with silica gel?... What DO ya'll use 'em for?
