Yeap...any idea where to get it locally for LX3?

You can get the auto lens cap from www.yamiya.com.my - look for Ricoh LC-1

Just found out there is LC-2 now too! and it does not require any mods like LC-1! Awesome will definitely be ordering one!

You might need some force to get it in but not much been using LC-1 for almost a year now.

Time to move on to LC-2!

LC2 is direct fit?

There is no "direct" fit as we are using Ricoh caps to hinge lock on to the screws of LX-3

Problem with LC-1 was it requires minor mods as the cap will cause vignetting when zooming in. LC-2 seems to have solved that problem by adding hinges on to the inner cap however I can't confirm anything as I haven't tried it myself and my reference is from youtube.

Also if you plan to look for a "direct" screw fit then your only choice is to maintain your current cap.

Just picked up LC-2 and confirm no vignetting when zoomed! Awesome!

Update: After more thorough testing found out that LC-2 still vignetts at max zoom although less visible compare to LC-1 sad.gif
