Push on lens caps?
Hi,
Does anyone know of a UK source for a very specific push on lens cap?
I need either a 42mm push on cap or failing that I think a 38mm plastic lens cap.
Its for the rear element of my nikkor 135/5.6 and I'm pretty sure 42/38mm is correct.
I've tried speedgraphic, etc no joy.
Thanks,
Marc

I believe that Kaiser do a full range of push on caps. 
Other than that I phoned Paula at linhof & Studio and she was able to sort out a selection of caps in different sizes last time I lost one.

Marc, I usually take my lenses (needing caps)  when shopping in nearby cities as I find that many camera shops have a miscellaneous boxes/drawers with plenty of odd sized lens caps etc, usually I can find what I needed.

If you give Fotospeed a ring you can try/collect the lens cap from them in Corsham. I found them very helpful!
