NiSi Cine Lens Cap for Athena 14mm T2.4 – Fluorescent Focal Length Markings for Low-Light Visibility

This replacement lens cap is designed specifically for NiSi ATHENA cinema prime lenses, matching the Athena 14mm T2.4. It protects the front element during transport and storage while making focal length identification easier in dim conditions.

Key Features

• Fluorescent paint for focal length visibility — The cap includes fluorescent paint markings that glow in low light, so you can quickly identify the 14mm lens when working in dark studios or night shoots.
• Premium aluminum construction — The cap is made from aluminum to provide sturdy external protection for your lens front.
• Knurling grip on top — The textured knurling on the top surface gives a secure grip and makes removal and replacement faster and easier.
• Protective foam lining — A soft foam lining on the inside protects the lens surface from dust, scratches, and minor impacts while the cap is fitted.

Benefits for Photographers and Filmmakers

When you work in varied lighting environments, knowing which lens you’re grabbing saves time and reduces setup errors. The fluorescent markings help you spot the focal length quickly without extra light. Additionally, the aluminum body combined with the internal foam lining offers both external durability and internal cushioning, helping preserve lens condition during transport and storage.

Practical Use Cases

1. Low-light and night shoots where quick lens identification matters.
2. Studio sessions where lenses are frequently swapped and need reliable protection between uses.
3. Transport and storage to protect the front element from dust and minor knocks.
