[QUOTE="TwistedThrottle, post: 761762, member: 46724"] You can, nothing is going to happen, just be careful not to bump it when extended. It seems most secure retracted, and I've just gotten into the rhythm of unlocking it before the shot. Also, the camera goes into sleep mode when you retract the lens. If the lens is extended, the screens can stay on, (the camera goes into sleep mode after a short while, but can be tricked into waking up unintentionally) draining the battery. There is a button on the side of the EVF you can cycle the screens on or off, and fully off is an option, if that's how you want to set it up to preserve the battery life. I always retract the lens, pop the cap on and turn the camera off til the next shot. [/QUOTE]
