Manuel,
The DA*50-135/2.8 lens takes a 67mm snap in lens cap. Tamron makes
caps of almost the identical design that sell at B&H Photo in NY for
$9, and could likely be found in Portugal or elsewhere in Europe or
the UK for equivalent money.
The Pentax logo'ed lens cap you're looking for is available from
Pentax Imaging in the USA for $13. Plus shipping to me will bring the
price up to about $20. To ship it to you would then cost between $24
and $30 ... total is now $50. PayPal will charge an additional ~4.2%
(combined currency conversion and handling fees) which nets a total of
$52.
So if you are willing to pay $52 for a 67mm lens cap, I'd be happy to
order it for you and ship it. You'll need to pay for it prior to my
placing the order. Any excess payment, given the vagaries of postage
and Paypal fees, I would donate to charity.
If you're interested, send me an email.

I'd love to have some help from you. I know that buying a lens cap
from the
Pentax web store and send it to Portugal is a lot of trouble for
nothing
except the eternal gratitude of a fellow Pentaxian, but I am sure
that I
will not see this situation resolved here in Portugal. I can pay
through
PayPal.
Best regards,
Manuel

Assunto: DA*50-135 Lens Cap
Hi everyone
I recently got myself involved with the acquisition of a DA*16-50
and a
DA*50-135. Hard work but I got them!! Sold my MZ-s and and battery
grip
and... more stuff than I'd like, but got those beauties!!
The next step is to sell the house in order to get an 24'' iMac. I
think
that I will be able to post some pictures in a couple of weeks.
Hopefully
not mine with suitcases at front door.
Well the fact is that with the excitement of changing lenses I lost
the
front cap of the 50-135. I looked in the pentax web store and there
she
was... the PTX 31521. The problem is that they won't send it to
Portugal.
The local pentax dealer is very very slow in managing to solve our
(pentaxians) problem. So here I am asking for the help of PDML
community.
I am willing to pay for the shipping to Portugal and the cost of the
cap
that I am sure will be less than the the shipping. Unless that
someone in
Europe can manage to get me that cap.
Thanks in advance,
Manuel
