Pentax O-LC72 Lens Cap 72mm

The Pentax O-LC72 is a replacement front lens cap designed to fit the Pentax 16-85mm zoom lens. It shields the front element from dust, scratches and accidental impact when the lens is not in use. The cap is supplied new as an original equipment accessory from Pentax.

Suits owners of the 16-85mm lens needing a direct

Photographers using lenses with a different filter-thread diameter cannot use this cap. It is not a rear lens cap and does not protect the mount side of the optic. Buyers looking for a universal pinch-cap or a tethered system should consider other designs.

72mm filter-thread compatibility

The cap locks onto the 72mm front thread of the 16-85mm lens. This single dimension determines whether the cap will attach securely. Verify the thread size marked on your lens barrel before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the 72 mm cap add noticeable weight or heat when left on the 16-85mm lens all day?

The O-LC72 is a lightweight snap-on cap that adds virtually no mass and generates no heat, so it can stay on the 16-85mm lens continuously without affecting handling or temperature.

What must I already own for the O-LC72 cap to work?

You need a Pentax 16-85mm lens with a 72 mm front thread; the cap is engineered specifically for that diameter and will not fit other sizes.

Will the O-LC72 cap fit older Pentax lenses that also use a 72 mm thread?

Yes, any legacy Pentax lens with a 72 mm filter thread will accept the O-LC72 cap, providing the same dust and scratch protection as on the 16-85mm model.
