I started this when I first switched over to Leicas, thinking that it was probably better to keep the exposed curtains of the focal plane shutter pointing toward by belly than toward anything else out there that may be coming my way. The front element of the lens can likely withstand more force than the shutter curtains, but I'll leave this for someone else to test, with or without a UV filter attached to the lens ;)
