Is it ok to store lens on camera?

Is it ok to keep the kit lens on the camera, or should I take it off to put the camera away? Would it do any damage keeping it on?

Keep it on.

It's best to leave it on. Also, be careful to not get any dirt, dust or sand inside when changing or removing camera lenses. If you're facing the wind, turn your back and protect your camera, etc.

Always have my most used lense "stored" on the the camera. No reason to not leave it on, faster to shoot. As long as you store the camera and lens in a dust and humidity free enviroment without wild temperature swings and you should be good.

As everyone's mentioned, you are fine keeping one on the lens - I might consider only in the event of long-term storage taking it off, but then be sure to have a body cap on the camera. But if the camera is in semi-regular use, a lens can always be kept on it, ready to go.

I got out late Sunday night, a little later then I wanted to. I only got a few shots, nothing exciting, because there's nothing exciting around here to shoot.

 

Monday, I wanted to go out, except I was so tired, I fell asleep.

 

Today, Tuesday, it's raining....and it's the last thing we need here...We had major flooding in our area.

 

I hope everything will cooperate tomorrow.
