AMOTOK Camera Body and Rear Lens Caps for Hasselblad HB V C/CF bodies and lenses
Product description
The essentials
If you regularly store a Hasselblad HB V C/CF camera body or remove the lens, having the right caps matters more than it sounds. The AMOTOK camera body and rear lens caps are a simple two-part cover set designed to help keep dust away from key openings—without adding bulk to your bag.
On paper, it’s a straightforward idea: use the body cap when the camera body is stored or after the lens has been removed, and use the rear lens cap when the lens is stored or has been taken off the camera. It’s not a substitute for careful handling, but it does add an extra layer of protection for those “in-between” moments.
Key features you’ll notice day to day
This cap set is split into two pieces, which is handy because you can cap each component as soon as it comes off.
What stands out is the practical storage logic. Instead of relying on improvised covers, you get a dedicated body cap for the camera body and a dedicated rear lens cap for the lens. That tends to make day-to-day use feel less fiddly when you’re switching gear, packing up after a shoot, or keeping equipment in a dry drawer.
What it’s compatible with (and the bit to double-check)
The provided compatibility details are specific: the camera body cap is described as fitting Hasselblad HB 3 camera bodies, while the rear lens cap is described as fitting Hasselblad HB V C/CF lenses.
It’s worth taking a quiet minute to confirm your exact kit. “Hasselblad HB V / C/CF” is reasonably clear, but camera bodies can be more nuanced in real life than product listings sometimes show. If you’re not sure whether your body is exactly the one mentioned, you may want to verify before ordering—caps that don’t line up are more hassle than they’re worth.
Why it makes sense if you store and swap lenses
Imagine you’re out shooting, lens comes off for a quick change, then the camera goes back into a bag between locations. The moment the camera body and rear element are exposed, dust can start finding its way in—especially if you’re working in breezy outdoor conditions.
With this set, you can cap the body right after removing the lens, and cap the lens right after it comes off the mount. Over time, that kind of routine can reduce the “small grit” problem that builds up in well-used kits.

Care & maintenance
These are caps, so maintenance is mostly about keeping them clean and making sure they’re not fitted over dust that could scratch or trap particles. If you wipe them with a soft cloth before storage, you’ll generally do better than letting grit sit in place and then transferring it during your next setup.
Also, don’t force anything. If a cap doesn’t sit easily, it’s usually a sign of mismatch rather than a “just push it on” situation.
In the box

FAQ
Is this a two-cap set or just one cover?
It’s a two-part set: one cover for the camera body and one cover for the rear of the lens.
Can I use the lens cap on any lens?
The listing describes it for Hasselblad HB V C/CF lenses, so it’s best if your lens matches that compatibility.
When should I put the body cap on?
The listing suggests using the body cap when storing the camera body or after removing the lens.
Is it only for storage, or also for transport?
It fits both use cases: you can cap immediately after removing either part, whether you’re storing gear or moving between locations.
Should you buy it?
Buying it makes sense if you own a Hasselblad HB 3 body and HB V C/CF lenses and you want a tidy, consistent way to cap both the body opening and the rear of the lens when they’re separated. It’s the kind of small accessory that earns its keep mainly through routine—especially if you shoot often, swap lenses, or travel with gear.
You may want to skip it if your equipment doesn’t match the stated HB 3 body and HB V C/CF lens compatibility, because caps that don’t fit properly won’t protect as intended and can be frustrating to use. Also, if your main priority is something more robust for heavy-duty protection (rather than dust management during handling and storage), this is likely to feel more like a basic “keep it covered” solution than a full-on gear enclosure.
