Overview
Cap Set for Pentax K Mount Body Cap and Rear Lens Cap PK Black Plastic Dust Protection During Lens Change

This set is designed for cameras and lenses with a Pentax K mount and includes a body cap and a rear lens cap. The body cap seals the DSLR mount when no lens is attached, preventing dust from reaching the mirror and sensor. The rear cap protects the detached lens from the back, covering both the rear element and the lens mount. Both caps are made of black plastic and the rear cap features an embossed PK designation. The set serves as a replacement for lost caps or as an accessory for a lens purchased second-hand without accessories.

The caps are attached by twisting in the mount just like a lens and hold firmly in place even when carried in a backpack. The ribbed edge facilitates secure grip during attachment and removal. This set will benefit owners of Pentax digital SLRs as well as photographers using older PK manual lenses who store them separately from the body.

You will appreciate the caps during every lens change outdoors, where dust, pollen, or small debris can easily enter the open mount. If you have multiple lenses with a K mount, it is practical to have a separate rear cap for each so that none are left unprotected in your bag. The body cap is also suitable when sending the camera for service or during long-term storage in a cupboard. The low profile of the body cap saves space in the bag.

Keep the caps clean and inspect them briefly before attaching to ensure that dust from their inner side does not enter the camera or onto the rear lens element. Dirty caps can be wiped with a cloth or rinsed with water and allowed to dry thoroughly. When changing lenses, hold the camera with the mount facing down and attach the cap as soon as possible. Do not place the removed cap on the ground or in sand during the change, but put it in your pocket or bag. Do not expose the caps to direct sunlight and high temperatures for extended periods to maintain their shape and ensure they fit well in the mount.

The cap set for Pentax K is a simple way to protect the DSLR body and lens when they are stored separately. The caps are lightweight and take up almost no space in the bag. They are suitable for modern digital SLRs as well as for a collection of older lenses with a K mount. Thanks to the PK designation, you can easily identify which system the cap belongs to. It is a useful replacement and backup for every owner of Pentax equipment.
