Universal Thread Compatibility
The Vivitar White Balance Cap fits three common filter thread sizes — 62 mm, 67 mm and 72 mm — so one disc covers multiple lenses. It slips over the front element like a standard cap and provides a neutral white reference for setting custom white balance in-camera. Photographers who switch between different diameter lenses can carry a single tool instead of several dedicated caps.
Replaces Separate Grey Cards
Instead of holding a separate grey card or calibration target, the cap stays attached to the lens and is immediately available when lighting changes. The jump is worth it for shooters who frequently move between mixed-light environments and want a faster workflow without digging through a bag for a loose reference card. It also protects the front glass when not in use.
Suits Multi-Lens Shooters
This cap suits photographers who own lenses with 62, 67 or 72 mm threads and prefer an always-on white-balance aid that doubles as a protective cover. Buyers who need a larger reference surface for very wide angles, or who work with lenses outside those three thread sizes, should look at something else.

Questions about this item
Which lens filter threads does the 62/67/72mm cap fit?
The cap threads directly onto 62 mm, 67 mm or 72 mm filter rings, covering the three most common lens sizes.
How do I attach the white balance cap and what step is often missed?
Screw it onto the front filter thread until snug, then set a custom white balance while the cap covers the lens; forgetting the custom WB step defeats the purpose.
What part of the cap will need replacement first?
The threaded plastic mount can strip or crack after repeated screwing and unscrewing, so keep the original packaging to protect the threads when not in use.
