The Leica Metal Cap (14398) is designed for the APO-Summicron-M 50mm f/2.0 ASPH lens but will also fit the V5 Summicron-M 50mm lens. Made of finely milled brass, providing a more secure and solid fit

Finding the perfect lens cap is like mastering a tricky Snow Rider 3D level – frustrating until you nail it! I agree, the standard Leica caps aren’t the best. Have you considered searching for generic pinch caps of the right diameter? They’re often more secure and easier to use.

That’s interesting! I always appreciate the little details that Leica focuses on. A finely milled brass cap does sound significantly more durable than some of the flimsy plastic ones you see elsewhere. It’s like they’re building in a little piece of art, even for something as simple as a lens cap. It makes me wonder if future generations will be playing a museum exhibit version of the Dinosaur Game while admiring our carefully preserved Leica gear! Definitely a worthwhile investment for protecting such valuable glass.

I love that Leica still makes accessories like this in milled brass—nothing beats that solid, reassuring click on my V5 Summicron-M 50. I once lost a plastic cap hiking, and dust haunted my shots for weeks, so a snug metal cap feels worth it. For unwinding after shoots, I switch gears with Snow Rider 3D—it’s a fun, low-stakes palate cleanser that weirdly keeps my reaction time sharp.
