JJC Aluminum Lens Cap Cover Protector for Ricoh GR IIIx GR IIIx HDF GR3x HDF GR III GR III HDF GR3 HDF GR II GR2 with Soft EVA Interior -Black

Really nice aluminum lens cap — solid, premium feel and a perfect fit on the GR III. It’s a joy to use, adds a bit of weight in a good way, and protects the lens. Highly recommended.

I got this to protect my new GR IIIx when the camera is in my bag. This will hopefully keep some dust away when the camera is not being used. The only issue is you need to remember to take it off before turning on the camera... it's pretty snug and might not pop off causing a lens error.

Good quality

Well made and fits great on my Ricoh GRIII. I like that it's made out of aluminum with a inner rubber friction ring to secure it. It gives it a premium feel.

It's a metal lense cover with a soft lining. Works good!

I just got the gr iii and wanted a way to protect the closing elements in the front and to keep dust out of the lens when not in use. This cap fits perfectly and has the felt liner all on the inside (including the part that makes contact with the camera ring). Make sure to follow the instructions and to press it on when you first get it and leave it on for 12 hours before removing it. This is made out of metal and looks like it will last. I used a label maker and made a label for the front of the cap that says "remove first" and one label on the ridge of the cap that you can see when looking down from the top of the camera. The reason I did this is because leaving the cap on and turning on the camera can cause ware on the cameras motor. I know that it is supposed to "pop off" if you accidentally leave it on, BUT I would rather not do it and risk damage to my camera.

Since the Ricoh has a document problem with dust I wanted to get something that would seal the retractable lens from exterior debris. This thing locks into the mount after you remove the ring from the Ricoh with a solid fit. It opens and closes automatically so you don't have to worry about taking off the lens cap to get the shot. For all intensive purposes this is a lens cap and imo that should be something that protects that lens from scratches and limited impacts to the surface of the lens. But it's not sealed. Each petal has a bit of relief from the other that dust can enter. This also increased the depth of the camera losing some of the thinness which the ricoh is know for and making it a tad less pocketable. In my opinion you're better off getting the hard lens cap and remove it on your own since its more of a sealed unit. It also offers more protection and combine it with the JJC tape on UV filter. To minimize pressure against the thin camera lens shutter petals which can accidentally be pressed against which could lead to damage. If you want to utilize filters full time you're better off using the nisi filter or ricoh's 49mm filter adapter which both clip on and also offer a better seal then this product and overall protection.

This one is good but there is a problem is I always forgot to take it off when power on the camera. Then the cover will drop down to the floor. If there is a string that will be good because it can connect the camera and the cover so the cover will not fall down.

Good

It does not fit the camera. Requested a replacement and looks like they sent the same item back. The package was not sealed. Comparing to the images on the official website, my guess is that there is no inner soft lining, which is why it doesn't fit. Returning it for the 2nd time and I have requested a refund this time. I would rather deal with the dust and ruin my camera than deal with this again. So frustrating. I hope I at least get my refund back. Zero rating.

The lens cap a not meant for gr2 or gr3. If is loose fitting.

Llego en tiempo y el material es excelente. Quizá me preocupa que al ser de aluminio pueda rayar la cámara en algún roce, pero solo es tener calma al retirarla.

Perfect fit. Excellent, soft interior. High quality. Metal and perfectly matched black finish. I would prefer it without the stamped GR but others may like it. I bought this for carrying in my pocket so I didn’t damage the automatic lens cover and to keep out dust and lint. This accomplishes both. I wondered if the cap might add too much bulk, preventing it from fitting in my front jeans pocket. But, it still fits without issue. Excellent product.
