I have a 49mm lens cap which is the correct size for your Pentax-A 50mm lens (Checked the filter size here: http://www.pentaxforums.com/lensreviews/SMC-Pentax-A-50mm-F1.7-Lens.html).
It is not Pentax branded, it is just a generic lens cap. However it is of no use to me as I don't have any lenses with a 49mm thread. You can have it for the price of postage.

yea, i actually meant uv filters. I do have a skylight filter which was on the 50mm when i bought it, so just need them for the other three, which as i said are all different sizes. have been on e-bay, but as im new to all this, not sure which make to get or who to buy from. I just thought that everyone here seems to have bucket loads of gear, there might be a few filters surplus.

This thread seems to have drifted so I have deleted irrelevant posts.

am looking for rear lens cap for Tamron SP 90 and front lens cap for Pentax-A 1:1.7 50mm.
Also, apart from these two, I also have the the K-X 18-55 kit lens and Tamron 70-300mm. I assume I need to use polarizing filters on all, and as they are all diff sizes.....so, anyone got filters to fit, and would you recommend other filters?
Thanks,
Catherine.
