Re: Canon Powershot SX530 lens cap size

The camera ships with a Canon clip-in lens cap, which clips into the end of the lens barrel, where on would expect to find filter threads.

The camera is not designed for an externally-fitted lens cap, and one must be careful in fitting an external push-on style cap, lest one cramp the last couple of millimeters of lens retraction during power-off, leading to damage of the lens motor drive.
