The picture here is meant to highlight the lens cap and how it is completely disconnected from the camera when removed. Protecting the camera's lens is vital to picture quality, so this lens cap is a very important piece of equipment, especially considering how expensive a camera lens is to replace. Every time the camera is to be used it has to be removed from the camera. The user then has to keep track of the lens cap while using the camera so that it can be put back when finished. This is putting to much room for error in the user's hands and greatly reduces the effectiveness of the device.
SOLUTION:
The solution to this problem is overwhelmingly simple, which begs the question: why is it not utilized more often? All that is need is a small slot on the outside of the lens cap to which a nylon string can be attached. This string can secure the lens cap to the same point that the neck strap uses. This will makes sure that the lens cap stays connected to the camera even when it is taken off of the lens. This simple correction keeps the user from losing the cap and therefore greatly increases its effectiveness.
