Have seen a few threads on lens caps/gimbal locks so thought I'd weigh in....
After much searching around I bought this a couple of weeks ago (it had just come out) - just wanted to share as I think the product is great. I lug my P3 around in a backpack all the time....and this has done the job nicely.
I hated the clear plastic gimbal lock that came with the P3 - far too fiddly to use in the field (and obviously doesnt offer any protection for the lens). I saw a bunch of 'hard' 3D printed options online but wasn't convinced all that tight snapping to my camera/gimbals/frame was going to be good for them. This one is made in a flexible material and fits snuggly - and is really quick to fit/remove. Yeah it's a bit expensive but I guess good design/quality usually is! Seller was good too - answered my queries and shipped promptly.
