Lens-protect – Neoprene protection for photographic equipment
Lens-protect is a high-quality neoprene protection that was developed for the professional protection of your photographic equipment. This product has more than 15 years of tradition and during that time has undergone constant improvement to meet the requirements of even the most demanding photographers. Neoprene, an elastic and highly resistant material, is ideal for protecting lenses because it adapts perfectly to the shape and size of the lenses, thus providing maximum protection while maintaining compactness and lightness.
Key features:
Elastic neoprene – This material adapts to the shape of the lenses and effectively protects the surface of the lenses from scratches, impacts, dust or moisture.
Modular design – The neoprene protection is designed from individual parts that fit together precisely and completely protect the lens. For zoom lenses, the protection is made of multiple pieces, which allows free movement when zooming and focusing.
Sunshade protection – Sunshade protection is available whenever the lens is not tulip-shaped, i.e. if it has a straight end. This ensures protection of the entire lens, including the lens hood.
Complete protection of the lens body and rings – Lens-protect protects all key parts of the lens, including the body and rings, which are susceptible to damage and expansion.
Extendable lens parts – Extendable parts such as zoom or focus rings cannot be protected due to the need for manipulation, but are protected by the lens manufacturer’s dust sleeves.
Special variants:
CAMO material – For demanding customers, we offer the option of custom CAMO material, which is a specialized material with a unique pattern. This material is more expensive because production is difficult, but it provides excellent protection and aesthetic appearance.
Over 1000 lenses available – Lens-protect offers protection for a wide range of lenses that have been on the market in the last 15 years. If you cannot find your lens in the standard offer, we will be happy to prepare a tailor-made price quote for you.
Price list and availability:
You will find the current offer in the price list, which includes various variants for over 1000 lenses. Prices vary depending on the base material (001-008) and the CAMO material, which is custom made. If you have specific requirements or cannot find your lens, please contact us and we will send you a quote immediately.
Lens-Protect-LENS is a neoprene sleeve designed to provide complete protection for the entire lens body, from the lens hood thread to the bayonet heel. This protective sleeve is made of one piece, which tightly wraps the lens and protects it from dust, water, scratches and other external influences.
Features and division:
For long fixed lenses, the Lens-Protect is designed to be divided into multiple parts for even better protection and flexibility in use.
Lens Hood – This part covers the entire lens hood and extends approximately 20 mm onto the lens body, providing protection not only for the lens hood but also for the front of the lens.
Lens Body – This part wraps the entire lens body from the lens hood thread to the tripod mount. Protects the lens in key areas that are most exposed to external influences and mechanical damage.
Lens End – This part covers the tripod mount up to the lens mount. It extends approximately 20 mm onto the lens barrel and is equipped with a hole for a tripod pin. Thanks to this solution, the lens can be rotated on the tripod mount without being affected by the functionality of the protection. The stabilizer switches and focus modes are accessible after folding the sleeve, allowing convenient use even with the protection in place.
For lenses with an integrated lens hood:
For lenses that have an integrated lens hood, parts 1 and 2 are combined into one unit that covers the entire front of the lens. When the lens hood is pulled down, the Lens-Protect simply folds up like an accordion on the lens barrel, making it easier to handle and access the lens.
Lens-Protect-ZOOM-LENS is a specially designed protective cover for zoom lenses, which is made of several parts, so that the zoom and focus functions are not affected in any way. This system allows the lens to be used comfortably even with the protective cover on, without affecting its operation or handling.
It consists of the following parts:
First part – Lens body
This part tightly surrounds the entire lens body from the lens hood thread to the tripod socket. It provides protection against dust, moisture and mechanical damage in the area that is most exposed to external influences. This part is designed so that it does not affect the zoom or focus function.
Second part – Lens end
The second part covers the tripod socket up to the lens bayonet and extends approximately 20 mm onto the lens body. This part is equipped with a hole for the tripod pin, which allows the lens to be rotated on the tripod socket without any restriction of movement. This allows the lens to remain fully functional even with the lens protector in place.
Benefits and features:
Full functionality: By dividing the lens cap into two parts, full zoom and manual focus are maintained without any restrictions. The first part will be delivered in two pieces, allowing flexibility in using the lens without affecting its performance.
Access to controls: The stabilizer switches and focus modes remain fully accessible when the cap is folded, allowing convenient use without having to remove the protector.
Protection and comfort: The neoprene material provides excellent protection against dust, moisture, scratches and other external influences, while remaining flexible and not restricting lens manipulation.
Easy to use on a tripod: Thanks to the special design, the lens can be rotated on the tripod mount without any effect on the protection, which is ideal for professional photographers and videographers working in demanding conditions.
Lens-Protect-BODY is a neoprene protective sleeve designed specifically for the camera body to provide reliable protection in demanding conditions. This product is ideal for photographers working in environments with high dust, light rain, or in cold and freezing conditions. Thanks to the elastic neoprene, the sleeve tightly wraps the camera body and protects it from dust, water, snow and mechanical damage.
Variants:
Lens-Protect-BODY – Basic version for protecting the camera body itself.
Lens-Protect-BODY+GRIP – Version for cameras with a battery grip, which protects not only the camera body, but also the grip for a comfortable grip.
Key features:
Elastic neoprene – The material is elastic enough to perfectly wrap the camera body and adapt to its shape, which provides a high level of protection without limiting use.
Protection for adverse conditions – Designed for use in environments where there is a risk of damage to the camera from moisture, dust or frost. Ideal for working in nature, in the mountains or when shooting in rainy and winter conditions.
Rubber edge – The sleeve has a rubber edge at the end, which ensures that the sleeve holds firmly on the camera body and does not slip.
Transparent back – The back of the sleeve is equipped with transparent mica, which allows easy access to the camera display. The user has full control over the camera functions without having to remove the protection.
Camera control – The sleeve is equipped with a hole for the thumb of the right hand, which allows comfortable operation of the buttons and control wheels on the back of the camera.
LCD and control button visors – Depending on the type of camera, the sleeve is equipped with one or two LCD and control button visors, which allows easy use of the camera without having to remove the protection.
Adjustments for optimal use:
Shaping – After attaching the sleeve to the camera body, it is recommended to leave it on the device for 12 hours to properly shape it to the shape of the camera.
Cutouts – Minor adjustments are required to ensure maximum functionality:
Eyecup opening: For DSLR models (mid-range), a small circular or oval hole needs to be cut out on the eyecup. For professional models (Canon 1D, Nikon 4D, 3DX) with a significantly protruding eyecup, it is better to remove the eyecup, cut a hole in the sleeve, and then attach the eyecup over the mica.
Control wheel: For some models, a small hole needs to be cut out at the control wheel location. We recommend starting with a smaller hole and, after pulling out the wheel, enlarge the hole as needed.
Possibility of adjustment for external flash: For attaching an external flash or permanent use of the flash, the sleeve can be cut through, which allows for convenient attachment of the flash without having to remove the protection.
Advantages of Lens-Protect-BODY:
Complete protection of the camera body against adverse environmental influences (dust, water, frost, snow).
Comfort of use – Maintain full access to camera controls without having to remove the protective cover.
High flexibility – Ability to adapt the cover to a specific camera model thanks to custom adjustments.
Ease of use – Transparent mica and control openings make it easy to work without having to remove the cover.
Lens-protect-FLASH – It puts on the flash body. Protects against mechanical damage, gives termal insulation to the flash so it extends the battery life.
Lens-protect-CAP – For fixed lenses, circular cap fitted cuffes and elastic drawstring.
ens-protect-TRIPOD-MONOPOD – These are neoprene tubings for tripod and monopod legs. Ideal solution for protection form freeze and mechanical damage.
Lens-protect-HOLSTER – Neoprene covers for telephones, notebooks, radios and tablets.
Lens-protect-EXTENDER – This is to protect the converter. Is manufactured from one piece sleeve, which is about 25 mm longer so it can cover lens.
Lens-Protect material and features
All standard Lens-Protect product lines are made of high-quality neoprene, which is black on the back and black on the front with an elegant print. This material is equipped with a unique thermo-insulating layer and a top protective knit, which together provide excellent protection for your photographic equipment.
Due to its composition, neoprene tightly wraps cameras and lenses, protecting them not only from mechanical damage, but also from adverse weather conditions such as water and frost. The main advantages of Lens-Protect material include:
Protection against mechanical abrasion: Neoprene protects your equipment from scratches and other mechanical damage.
Protection against water and frost: In the event of rain, the top layer of the material acts as an absorbent sponge that sucks up water and seals it inside. When subsequently squeezed, the water from the material comes out without reaching the camera or lens. This mechanism effectively protects the device from water damage.
Thermal insulation: The material acts as an insulator against rapid temperature changes, which helps protect the photographic equipment from both overheating and freezing. When working in freezing conditions, photographic equipment freezes easily, and when you move into a warm environment, condensation forms on the surface of the device. Lens-Protect solves this problem by helping to maintain a stable temperature thanks to the thermal insulation layer, thereby minimizing the risk of condensation on the camera.
Overheating protection: In extremely hot conditions, where the temperature exceeds 55°C, lenses can overheat, especially with black long lenses that absorb heat. Under these conditions, hot air is created in the lens tubes, which can negatively affect focusing. Lens-Protect effectively helps protect the lens from overheating and ensures proper function even in extreme temperatures.
Origin and application
Lens-Protect was originally developed as a protective system for professional photographic equipment used in extreme conditions. However, in practice, this protection system has proven to be very useful for the general public, especially for entry-level and mid-range DSLR cameras and their lenses, which are not sufficiently protected against external influences as standard. Thanks to its flexibility and effective protection, Lens-Protect is the ideal solution for anyone who wants to protect their photographic equipment in demanding conditions.
