After a bit of searching I can't find info on a suitable lenscap for this beast. What an enormous objective lens!

Did come with one. Just measure the width of that hood (112mm? ) and look for one that fits over it.

actually the cap was an extra but it does measure 112mm on the inside

Thanks for sharing that link - now I know that I own not only a nice lens, but in addition also an exclusive lens cap and and equally exclusive lens case Laugh 1

Funny to read ... however I don't think they were delivering such an expensive lens without lens cap and without a lens case ...! Especially since the dedicated 2x converter was included ...

PS this reminds me to replace the worn-out focusing bearings on my sample with the teflon stuff I had ordered (and received) months ago ...

I didn't find a cap ( or it was outrageously expensive) for my Nikon 300/2.8 ED IF and I bought a slip on cover.
This one
