FAQs
What size is this lens cap?
This is the 82mm version of the Kase Magnetic Circular Lens Cap.
Do I need anything else to use this lens cap?
Yes, you need a compatible Kase 82mm Magnetic Circular Filter Adapter mounted on your lens to attach this cap.
Can I use this with my standard screw-on filters?
No, this lens cap is specifically designed for Kase magnetic circular filter systems and will not work with standard screw-on filters.
Is this cap compatible with all Kase magnetic filters?
Yes, it is compatible with both standard and Revolution series Kase magnetic circular filters when used with the appropriate magnetic adapter.
How do I clean the magnetic surfaces?
Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to wipe away any dust or smudges from the magnetic surfaces of both the cap and the adapter.
Can I leave the magnetic adapter on my lens all the time?
Yes, the magnetic adapter is designed to be left on your lens, and the lens cap can be attached and removed quickly while the adapter is in place.
What is the main benefit of this lens cap over a traditional one?
The main benefit is speed and convenience. It snaps on and off magnetically, which is much faster than screwing and unscrewing a traditional lens cap, especially when filters are involved.
Troubleshooting
Cap not attaching securely
Ensure both the lens adapter and the cap's magnetic surface are clean and free from dust or debris. Verify that you are using an 82mm Kase magnetic adapter and the correct Kase magnetic lens cap.
Difficulty removing the cap
Grip the edges of the cap firmly and pull directly away from the adapter. The magnetic force is designed to be strong but release smoothly.
Cap falls off during use
Re-check for any obstructions on the magnetic surfaces. Ensure the adapter is properly seated on the lens and the cap is fully engaged. If the issue persists, the magnetic strength may be compromised, and replacement might be necessary.
