lens stickers

Lens Cap Stickers

We thought that sticking gaffa tape on back caps indicating the focal length looked a bit rubbish so we got some stickers printed. They have been applied to all camera systems and identify lenses clearly and look smart on set. I have some spare so if on your next job with us you would like some for your lenses send us a list and we can see if we have them.
