Lens case

[raj]

Hi, I'm after some lens cases for my m43 lenses however most of the ones I've found are too big made for bigger dslr lenses I was looking at the Olympus cs-21/22 however they are pretty expensive for a bit of neoprene I was wondering if any of you have found something similar but cheaper ideally with a closed top either zip or Velcro and not draw string. Any help/suggestions appreciated thanks guys!

P.s have Olympus 45, 12-50 and a Panasonic 25mm lenses

Regards

Re: Lens case

I use the neoprene ones from Ebay. As you say, even the small ones are too large, so I have a cunning plan. I stick two rear lens caps together back to back. That way I can accommodate two lenses safely in one case!

Re: Lens case

Hi Steve, i wonder if you would know if the lensbaby case would take the PL 25mm? or if you have internal dimensions which could help me work it out? Thanks in advance

Re: Lens case

Hi Raj, can't find official internal measurements on the web and very difficult to measure as lid needs to be in place to measure! but the case wall is only 2/3mm thick so hight would be 78-80mm, Dia 68-70mm so probably be to big for 25mm pancake lens.

Re: Lens case

Hi Steve, That sounds fine i have the PL25 1.4 not the Pana 20 1.7 which is the pancake so its about 6cm tall maybe 6.5cm with the filtre, seems like two of these would cover my 45 and 25 lenses, i would have to keep the hood seperate for the 25 but thats ok its more the lens i want to protect. Thanks!

Re: Lens case

I use one of these bought from ebay
fits the 12-50 like a glove, it will take the 45mm but there is a bit of room left so you may be able to fit both the PL25 & 45mm, unfortunately I don't have a PL25 to test.
