Lens Guard Sizing Chart.
How many times has a camera swung and banged against whatever is in front of it? Scraped a rock? Smacked against a door? A lens cap or lens hood just won’t adequately protect your glass. Finally there is a solution. It’s called the Lens Guard.
The Lens Guard is like a bumper for your lens.
In April 2012, we will begin shipping 3 new Lens Guards to fit lenses from 3.9 inches (8.6 cm) in diameter all the way to 6.6 inches (15.8 cm). The new XL, 2X-L, and Jumbo Lens Guards will protect any of your larger lenses.
These protect any of your larger lenses and many of your basic lenses with hoods, including:
o The popular Nikon 14-24mm and other fisheye and wide angle lenses
o All brands of 70-200mm lenses
o Other popular zooms – the Nikon 80-400mm and 200-400mm, the Sigma 80-400mm, 100-300mm, 300-800mm and 50-500mm (the “Bigma”), the Tamron 200-500mm, and others
o Large prime lenses — 200mm through 800mm primes from Canon, Nikon, Sigma and others
For a limited time, get a special “Limited Edition” Lens Guard. We are making just 500 of the 3 larger sizes available. We are using a service called Kickstarter to accept pre-orders. But you must order by March 4.
The three sizes are:
o Extra Large (X-L) — Fits 3.9″ – 4.4″ (10 – 11 cm) in diameter
o Extra Extra Large (XX-L) — Fits 4.9″- 5.3″ (12 – 13 cm) in diameter
o Jumbo — Fits 6.3″ – 6.7″ (16 – 17 cm) in diameter

Don’t Just Cap Your Lens,… GUARD It!
Made in the USA from U.S. and imported parts.
The Lens Guard fits snugly over the end of your slr lens, and can be used with or without a filter or lens cap.
The Lens Guard is constructed with 0.25″ (6mm) of a soft, cushiony inner core made of closed-cell neoprene (diving suit material), encased in a tough, 0.08″ (2mm) Santoprene outer cover. This powerful combination absorbs impact and prevents scrapes, scratches, and harmful bumps. It’s lightweight, too.
The Lens Guard features a built in tether that can be connected to your lens, camera strap or camera body.
The Lens Guard is not designed or intended to fit over a lens hood.

Universal
The Lens Guard fits most lenses across all brands, including Canon, Nikon, Sigma, Tokina, and Tamron. With Kickstarter's help, they will be available in three new sizes, giving us six total sizes that fit lenses from 2.5" to 6.6" in diameter. Available to protect both the front and rear of your slr lens.
