One of the things I love about my DX-1G, lenses and duo strobes is the string lanyards that they come with. Unfortunately, the lens cap came off during the surface swim the first time I took the camera out. The lens caps don't have a lanyard. I've gone to a couple Sea&Sea dealers and looked online for a replacement, but since Sea&Sea doesn't manufacture the lenses, they don't sell the caps. Anyone know where I can order lens caps for the wide-angle conversion and close-up lenses?
 
Hi Max-
SEA&SEA actually does manufacture the lenses, but Japan does not make the lens caps available to distributors and as a result retailers. We are researching an alternative right now and hopefully will be able to post something positive in the next few days. Thanks for your patience.

Replacement covers have become available - these should be received in the US within 2-3 weeks. Information for ordering through your authorized retailer is below:
