Ordering a new lens cap

Hey all,

I managed to loose the lens cap to my 150 awile ago, and I've been using makeshift lenscaps since. I'm getting tired of that though, so I figured I'd see what you guys think I should do. I've seen some alternative lens caps that have pouches and white balance cards and stuff floating around that look pretty handy. I also just noticed you can order 150 parts from here, and it would probably be possible to get the plain and simple one again:

What are some good alternatives? Should I try to get one from panasonic or would it be worth it to spring for a different one?
 
I don't know what they're charging you for a lens cap at Panasonic but I have bought pinchable lens caps for about a buck on eBay.
 
I bought one of these and love, it comes with a peel and stick velcro strip that goes on the outside of the hand strap so you can keep it with the camera. It has a little cord as well with a quick release, so you can just let it dangle from the camera as well.

The CoverLens IS a great little multi-tool to replace those easily lost lens caps. We use them and love them.

If you're looking for just the Panasonic lens cap, we offer replacement parts on our webstore for most requested parts. Lens caps are pretty much always on the shelf ready to ship.
