[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 140186, member: 13090"] For someone who only takes stills, or works in a studio, I suppose leaving the lens cap on when the, "lens isn't being used" is a fine idea. For myself, shooing almost exclusively outdoors, often in some pretty rough terrain, or who does street photography where speed is of the essence, I can't tell you how many shots I would have missed had I needed to stop and remove the lens cap before shooting. Maybe what you "SHOULD" do is consider that different people have different shooting styles and needs, and that simply because you don't feel the need for a protective filter some others, having vastly different needs than your own, just might. Thank you, Captain Obvious! [/QUOTE]
