Abstract: A lens cap device, comprising: a base configured as an inner ring; an outer ring configured to be rotatable relative to the base; a plurality of curved blades slidably connected to the base and rotatably connected to the outer ring, wherein the plurality of curved blades is configured to function as an iris; and wherein when the outer ring is rotated, each blade in the plurality of curved blades travels from an outer position that defines an opening to an inward position that defines a closure.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a lens cap with an integrated iris that screws onto a camera lens. Once secured on a camera lens, the iris may be opened by rotating an outer edge of the lens cap in a first direction. When in an open position, the entire surface of the camera lens is free from obstruction and photos may be taken as if the lens cap were not even there. The iris can literally disappear within an edge of circular lens cap. By rotating the lens cap in an opposite direction, the lens may be completely covered by the integrated iris again. For example, the iris may be opened by rotating the lens cap in a clockwise direction and then closed again by rotating the lens cap in a counter clockwise direction. Once installed, this lens cap never has to be removed.
