Alright, this is actually pretty awesome. KUVRD (which we have featured here on No Film School in the past) has announced that they’re working on a new version of their Universal Lens caps. Speaking from experience, lens caps can be fickle and easy to lose. These universal lens caps can solve lots of problems and allow for better protection when out on long and difficult shoots.

Let’s look at the updates for the universal lens cap 2.0 and how you can support the project’s Kickstarter.


Universal Lens Cap 2.0

Since KUVRD released its original universal lens cap, they’ve gone back to the drawing board and come up with a version 2.0. And actually - technically speaking - two new versions 2.0. The new universal lens cap 2.0 will come in both micro and “magnum” options, with updates for 25% more stretch, tighter fits, greater element protection, and colorized “x” markings on the top to keep your gear better organized.
