The LOREO Lens in a Cap (patent pending) is a new body cap for SLR cameras with detachable lenses. It protects standard and digital SLR cameras from dust and dirt while keeping them ready for snapshots. It incorporates a fixed focus lens, which turns any SLR into a point-and-shoot camera, slim enough to pocket. It is a self-contained unit that mounts directly onto the camera body and does not need any supporting lens. This means that it does not work with SLRs which do not have detachable lenses, such as the Olympus E series digital cameras. Focal length is 35mm, and aperture is adjustable from f/5.6 - f/64. The aperture acts as a built-in lens shade. The Lens in a Cap ships in 8 common mount types - Canon EOS, FD, Nikon, Olympus (now discontinued), Pentax K, Minolta MD and AF, M42. The Lens in a Cap's retaining ring has a plastic leaf spring. This allows a Loreo Lubot to be clipped on and held by friction. This Lens and a Lubot combination is capable of taking excellent 10x ultra macro photographs.

Camera with Lens in a CapThe Lens in a Cap is a pancake lens for any camera with a compatible mount type. It has been nicknamed the "Pin Cap" by fans. A "Pin Cap" fitted camera can take excellent impromptu photographs, starting from the basic f/5.6 setting, which has the effect of a soft lens. The softness disappears as the lens is stopped down and photos become sharp from near to far. At f/64 the Lens in a Cap turns the SLR into a pocket pinhole camera, pre-focused from 50cm to infinity. Scenic shots have excellent depth of field. Macro photographs with a Lubot attached are stunning. Users of digital cameras have reported that the Lens in a Cap allows them to try pinhole photography without worrying about dust. The Lens in a Cap only has two moving parts, so it is totally reliable and gives photographers an inexpensive option.

Professional photographers who have used the Lens in a Cap report that it makes a camera very lightweight but highly usable, well suited for taking snapshots where the presence of a big imposing lens can disturb the subject.
