Product Information

Full details

The Tenba Tools Lens Capsule (30 x 13cm) is designed for photographers seeking reliable, lightweight protection for large telephoto lenses. Its primary benefit is safeguarding expensive optics from dust, dirt, and minor impacts, especially when stored within a larger camera bag. A potential drawback is its soft construction, which may not offer the same rigid protection as a hardshell case for extreme impacts. Key features include durable neoprene, EVA foam padding in the lid and base, a secure zip closure, and versatile attachment options.

FAQs

What size lenses does the 30 x 13cm capsule fit?

This model is designed for large telephoto zoom lenses up to 30 cm (12 inches) long and approximately 13 cm (5 inches) in diameter, such as the Canon/Nikon/Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 or Nikon 200-500mm.

Can I store my lens with the hood attached?

Yes, it can accommodate lenses with the hood reversed or extended, depending on the specific lens and hood dimensions. It's best to test with your particular setup.

Is this capsule waterproof?

The Lens Capsule is water-resistant, offering protection from light splashes and rain. It is not designed to be submerged in water.

How do I clean the Lens Capsule?

Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Ensure it's dry before storing your lens.

What is the warranty period?

Please refer to Tenba's official website or your point of purchase for specific warranty details, as this information is not provided in the product description.

Does it offer protection against heavy impacts?

It offers good protection against dust, dirt, and minor shocks due to its neoprene and EVA foam padding. For protection against significant crushing forces, a rigid case might be more suitable.

Where can I attach the capsule?

The capsule can be attached to a waist belt or any MOLLE-compatible gear using its integrated attachment system.

Troubleshooting

Lens does not fit

Verify the lens dimensions against the capsule's specifications (30 x 13cm). Consider removing the lens hood or reversing it if possible. For lenses exceeding these dimensions, a larger capsule may be required.

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Attachment clip feels loose

Ensure the clip is fully engaged with your belt or MOLLE strap. If the clip itself is damaged, consider a replacement using a carabiner or additional strap for security.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent protection for its weight and size.
  • Durable neoprene material.
  • Rigid EVA foam offers superior impact resistance at key points.
  • Convenient attachment options for easy access in the field.
  • Includes a useful microfiber lens cloth.

Cons

  • Soft-sided construction may not protect against crushing forces.
  • Dimensions might be limiting for very long or unusually shaped lenses.
  • Zipper could be a potential point of failure over extended, heavy use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Lens Capsule requires no setup. Simply open the zip closure and insert your lens, ensuring it fits comfortably. The included microfiber cloth can be stored in the internal mesh pocket. Attach the capsule to your belt or MOLLE system using the integrated clip and loop.

Compatibility: This 30 x 13cm model is specifically designed for large professional telephoto zoom lenses. It fits lenses such as the Canon/Nikon/Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 (with the hood reversed or extended, depending on the specific lens dimensions), Nikon 200-500mm, and other lenses up to 30 cm (12 inches) in length and approximately 13 cm (5 inches) in diameter. Always measure your lens, including any attached filters or lens hoods, to ensure compatibility.

Care: To clean the exterior, wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. For the interior, gently brush away dust or debris. Ensure the capsule is completely dry before storing a lens to prevent moisture buildup.
