This has come up before here, but googling provided no answer - found a pristine Canon FL 19mm that even had the Series IX filter retaining ring, unused in the original branded baggie. Really wanted a lens cap for this one! Tried an 82mm snap-on, no dice. Nothing out there used.

The 90mm wide push-on cap did the trick. $12 at B&H, Schneider makes one that's about three times the price as well.

Just wanted to post this so other googlers might find it. Perfect and cheap solution, fits just right. Quite relieved - for me this will be a go-to lens for music videos actually, hectic shoot days. Found a Series IX skylight so I feel much better about keeping it in its like-new shape.
