The lens cap on the left is a bad lens cap. It is the last one of that style that I have left because they tend to fall off the lens and get lost. The cap on the right is generic which means it doesn’t have any writing on it and it costs half as much. I have had the particular lens cap for over two years.
Good lens cap!

I have several of the Canon ones just like the one on the left and yes they do just fall off, even in my crumpler bag. I thought maybe I was not putting it on right, but now next time I need one I will look out for the type on the right of the photo.
Seriously I have never lost one of the generic caps that pinch off.
Agreed – the stock Canon lens caps are terrible! I’m shocked I still have mine. It’s gone for quite a few rides.
The cap in the picture is the only one I have left.
