Is this similar to the caps offered with big lenses such as my 800mm f/5.6? The reason I bring it up is because they seem constructed the same way the leather lens pouches N sold back in the 70's were and may still sell for all I know. The finish on the "leather" has disintegrated on all my pouches. They are no longer usable due to all the little black flakes falling off them. I hope the caps don't suffer the same fate as they might be very difficult to replace and are certainly essential. Incidentally, I find these big, floppy caps a nuisance to remove and replace in any event. -- Terence A. Danks Nova Scotia, Canada http://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/danksta/home.htm
