Overview

The Player One M54M Metal Camera Cap is a machined aluminum 6061-T6 dust cap with an M54×0.75 male thread. It threads into an M54 female port to keep dust and debris off the opening when a camera or accessory is not connected.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you own a Player One camera or accessory with an M54 female port and want a solid metal cap to protect the threads and interior during storage or transport.

Key Features & Design

  • M54 male thread: M54×0.75 male, threading into a standard M54 female port.
  • Aluminum 6061-T6 body: a durable metal cap rather than plastic.
  • Protective function: keeps dust and debris out of the port when nothing is attached.
  • Fully mechanical: no optical elements and no electrical connection.

Recommended Uses

Use it to cap the M54 port on a camera or accessory during storage, transport, or any time the imaging train is broken down.

Compatibility & Accessory Notes

The cap fits standard M54×0.75 female ports. If you are unsure whether your camera or accessory uses an M54 female thread, send us the model and we will confirm the fit.

Good to Know Before You Order

  • Protective cap only: it is a dust cover, not an optical or functional adapter.
  • M54 male thread: it fits an M54 female port; it will not cap a male fitting.
